A seated figure in an ornate gold-and-red throne is being served food by a man in white dhoti and shirt with a red-and-gold shawl. The seated person wears a saffron-orange garment, a rudraksha mala and a gold ceremonial necklace, and holds a portion of food in his hand. Silver bowls and steel pots of cooked rice and vegetables sit on a white-draped table with banana leaves. Other people in white and cream ritual clothing, one in a red shawl, stand in the background near a blue backdrop.2015-12-20July 15 20152015-07-15 +2 copiesDecember 20 20152015-12-20Photograph of a food-serving scene at a Nithyanandoham event. A man seated on the left wears a saffron-orange wrap, a long rudraksha mala and ornate gold necklaces, and has a swept-up dark hairstyle; he is ladling yellow rice from a large silver bowl with ornate engraving. Beside him, a man in a plain white dhoti with gold borders and a red-brown rudraksha mala holds out his hands toward the food.

In the foreground, a man with a bare upper body wearing a maroon cloth and a white-and-flower garland, with a bold red and white marking on his forehead, reaches out with a hand full of golden grains. Beside him, a man in gold-bordered white dhoti stands holding a metal bowl, and another man at right with a bare chest, gold bangles, earrings and a gold garland of beads offers grains from a plate. Steel vessels and a large pot sit on a low table, and women in orange and red saris stand in the blurred background.
