A photo of a communal meal service at an ashram-style hall. A man on the right wears a white t-shirt with a logo, a white hairnet, disposable gloves and a rudraksha-style bead mala, and serves food from a steel tray with a ladle. A woman in a black top with orange embroidery and a red-beaded necklace holds out a plate to receive food. Beside her, a woman in a patterned yellow-and-brown salwar kameez with glasses and a bindi also holds a plate. Behind them a shaved-headed man in white ritual cloth stands near a saffron-coloured wall hanging. Steel serving trays of food, green leaves and palm fronds line the counter.
