Several oil lamps are lit, including one flame held near a hand, alongside brass plates with flowers, a conch shell, a small brass cup and a brass kalasha-like vessel. Seated figures in orange robes wear rudraksha malas on their wrists; one hand, adorned with bracelets, is reaching toward a lamp while another hand holds a brass implement. The setting appears to be a padapuja or aarti-style offering. Only partial hands and arms of seated devotees are visible.2013-04-08 +1 copiesMay 20 20132013-05-20May 20 20132013-05-20A close photograph of a puja set-up during a seated ritual. In the foreground, a person in orange-saffron robes with a rudraksha bracelet lights a brass oil lamp with one hand. Brass trays hold pink flower petals, a conch shell, small brass cups and a bowl with a handled ladle, placed on an orange cloth. Incense sticks and a crystal stand are nearby. Other people in orange robes sit cross-legged along the row in the background.2017-01-12April 12 20132013-04-12 +1 copiesJanuary 10 20172017-01-10Overhead view of a ritual puja setup on a rust-orange cloth over white tiles. A framed photograph stands at the back showing a long-haired figure in orange robes with a rudraksha mala, seated and gesturing with one hand; this is a printed portrait, not a person present. Around it are brass plates and cups holding hibiscus and other flowers, a brass kalasha-style vessel with a lamp, incense sticks in a brass holder, a small copper cup with liquid, a wooden spoon in a copper vessel, a copper yantra plate, betel-leaf and fruit offerings, and a folded orange cloth. An orange-robed sleeve is visible at the lower right.2013-06-24January 12 20172017-01-12January 06 20172017-01-06
