October 15 20082008-10-15Seated devotees in a long stone-pillared hall with festoon flags overhead take a shared meal served on banana leaves. In the foreground, two seated men face away from the camera: the one at left is bald, wearing a flower garland and white dhoti with a white shawl over the shoulders, while the one at right has long dark hair and wears a saffron-orange cloth. A row of saffron-robed sannyasis and white-clad devotees sits along the right side, with steel tumblers and leaf plates arranged on the floor. Standing observers in white dhotis and a photographer line the left. a person candidate is ambiguous; a figure's appearance is not distinct enough to assign identity, so the seated men are described by role.2008-10-15December 27 20072007-12-27 +1 copiesSeptember 21 20162016-09-21Annadhan in 20132013-01-01 +1 copiesJuly 14 20132013-07-14 +1 copiesApril 23 20132013-04-23 +2 copiesOctober 12 20062006-10-12A photograph of a group of saffron-robed monks seated cross-legged on the floor of a white-walled hall, eating from banana leaves set before them with small steel tumblers of water. Several monks have shaved heads and white vertical forehead markings; some wear rudraksha malas and gold-coloured necklaces, and one raises a mala. A man in a white dhoti with a red border and a gold necklace stands at left, and another figure in white walks in the background. Framed pictures and a wooden carved panel are visible on the right. The scene suggests a communal meal in an ashram setting.2011-03-05July 14 20132013-07-14 +1 copiesA photograph of a long hall with stone pillars and strings of multicoloured pennant flags overhead, where a group of people sits in rows on the floor before banana-leaf plates of food. A bare-chested, orange-clad man stands in the centre with his arms raised in a blessing-like pose, and a man in white dhoti and shirt pours from a vessel nearby. Two seated figures in the foreground wear orange cloth, one with a flower garland, and a brass plate with flowers and small lamps sits on the floor. Sannyasi-style orange robes dominate the seated devotees. The scene looks like a ritual meal or annadan-style gathering, though the exact rite is not clear from the image alone.2008-10-15December 27 20072007-12-27 +1 copies
