Foreground, a bald man in orange cloth with white forehead and arm markings holds his palms together in anjali. Behind him, men in white dhotis and orange shawls, with rudraksha malas and gold necklaces, pray with folded hands. At right, a bald man in orange, wearing a gold pendant, chants at a microphone stand while reading from an open sheet.

The man in front wears an orange silk-bordered garment with a gold edge, rudraksha and bead malas, a bead bracelet and white tripundra markings on his forehead. Beside him, men in white dhotis and orange cloths sit in prayer. Small brass items, a conch shell and a brass cup sit on an orange cloth in front. No candidate for a person is clearly identifiable from appearance, so no identification is made.2013-02-11February 11 20132013-02-11September 03 20072007-09-03September 30 20072007-09-30A photograph of a small indoor hall with pale pink walls and a tiled floor, where orange-clad devotees sit on an orange cloth. In the centre a seated woman in orange bends over a banana leaf and small steel cups set on a tray before a large framed portrait garlanded with white flowers and red and orange blooms. The portrait shows a figure in orange robes with long dark hair and a rudraksha mala, seated in meditation; it is a depiction, not a person present. A man in orange with a shaved head and rudraksha beads sits to the left, and another person in white sits at the lower right near a microphone stand. A dark wooden stool-like seat and a white cloth are behind the portrait.2011-03-05November 20 20092009-11-20February 12 20132013-02-12 +1 copiesPhotograph of a puja at a green-carpeted temple-style setting. In the foreground, a bald man in saffron-orange dhoti and upper cloth with a gold chain and ochre-marked arms sits on a white cloth reading from a printed sheet. Beside him, a man in white dhoti with a rudraksha mala holds a sacred item and sits before a microphone stand. Brass bowls, lamps and a kalasha rest on a red cloth on the floor. Behind them, a golden ornate throne with red bolster cushions stands before a framed portrait of a saffron-robed figure, and a white-draped table holds brass vessels and flowers. A bald man in white sits at the lower left edge and another person is partly visible at the right. Coiled cables run across the floor. Photo-level detail is clear, and the scene shows ritual worship.2013-02-07Two seated men on a mat in front of a golden ornate throne with red cushion against an orange wall.
