A dining room scene where a group of men in saffron and orange robes sits at a long white-clad table with plates of food, cups and water bottles. At the far right, a figure in an orange-red turban and orange-red garments sits in an ornate gold and red throne-style chair at the head of the table, with a red-and-gold chair beside him. Men in orange, peach and red robes sit around the table, while a bare-chested man with white tilak marks stands at the left near a gold chair. A yellow tulip arrangement sits in a vase on the table, and gold curtains hang behind.2014-03-11 +1 copiesJanuary 08 20142014-01-08 +1 copiesMarch 30 20142014-03-30 +1 copiesMarch 11 20142014-03-11 +2 copiesMarch 11 20142014-03-11March 30 20142014-03-30 +1 copiesPhotograph of a seated meal or ritual gathering under a red and white tent hung with marigold garlands. A man in orange robes and a red shawl with gold trim, holding a bell or small ritual object, stands at the left serving the row. Seated on the floor at low ornate wooden tables with brass bowls and white flower offerings are several saffron-robed sannyasis. In the centre, a man in a rust-brown turban and brown wrap with long dark hair presses his palms together and smiles. Beside him, an orange-robed man with a shaved head and an orange head covering holds a phone. Another seated figure in orange with a grey beard sits further back. The scene reads as an annadan or satsang-style gathering.2016-05-06A photograph of a formal dining room with a long white-clothed table set with plates, bowls of chutney, glasses, water bottles and a yellow tulip vase.

At right, a man with long swept-back dark hair, a rudraksha mala and ornate gold necklaces, wearing an orange-saffron garment, sits in a red and gold throne-style chair with palms joined, probable Swamiji by his distinctive ceremonial adornments and swept hair. Behind the table a standing man in a red and orange shawl with a rudraksha mala stands near two seated men in white and saffron, with gold throne chairs and curtains in the background.2014-03-14 +1 copiesMay 06 20162016-05-06A long row of saffron-robed sannyasis sits cross-legged on the floor during a Maheshwara Puja style feast. Many wear rudraksha malas and white vibhuti or tilak marks on their foreheads, arms and chests, and several hold their hands together in prayer. In front of them stretch banana-leaf plates laden with food, with rows of small white cups and a brass kalasha-style vessel in the foreground. Colourful striped umbrellas and a white draped stage hang in the background, with a few people standing and a woman in an orange sari visible behind the row. No individual is clearly identifiable as a person from appearance cues in this view.2016-12-18July 09 20122012-07-09March 30 20142014-03-30 +1 copies
