A long hall with a white tented ceiling and colourful hanging fabric banners is set for a seated community meal. Rows of people sit cross-legged on orange mats along both sides of a central aisle, each before a green banana leaf with food and small paper cups. On the left, men in white dhotis and shirts sit, one bare-chested man wears a gold necklace and a tonsured head. On the right, women in white saris with yellow borders sit, one with long light hair. Attendants in white stand at the back near the stage. A dark maroon curtain backs a raised platform with an orange seat and a framed portrait on a table, with a small tray of offerings in the aisle.

A photograph of a large tented hall where two long rows of people sit on the floor eating a meal from green banana leaves set before them, with small cups placed beside each leaf. On the left, men in white dhotis, some bare-chested or with ash and beaded necklaces, sit near the foreground; on the right, women in cream and white saris with yellow shawls sit in a long line. Colourful woven hangings decorate the ceiling, and ceiling fans hang above. At the far end, a raised stage with a dark maroon curtain holds a seated figure before a small deity murti and a portrait. Attendants in white move about the hall. A central wooden tray holds a brass vessel and small lamp between the rows.2010-10-12November 12 20102010-11-12November 12 20102010-11-12November 12 20102010-11-12November 12 20102010-11-12November 12 20102010-11-12November 12 20102010-11-12November 12 20102010-11-12November 12 20102010-11-12November 12 20102010-11-12July 20 20112011-07-20 +1 copiesNovember 12 20102010-11-12
