A photograph of a seated group performing a pada puja in a tiled hall with pink walls and red curtains. In the foreground, several shaved-headed men in saffron and orange robes and rudraksha malas sit cross-legged before brass plates of offerings, small brass lamps and kalasha-style vessels, one holding a small lit wick. Behind them, white-clad men with white shawls and striped borders sit with brass trays. Further back, women and girls in yellow, white and pink saris and salwar kameez sit in rows, some holding offerings. No individual is clearly identifiable as a person by appearance cues, so the a person field is unsure.
