A photograph inside a hall decorated with draped white fabric and colourful tasselled pennants. Several young men and boys in saffron-orange robes and rudraksha malas stand close together, some smiling, with white sacred ash marks on their foreheads and arms. Men on the right hold food offerings, and a boy in front has a white stripe on his forehead. On the floor, banana leaves hold small piles of rice, fruit and sweets, apparently prepared as offerings. A figure in white is visible in the background near the doorway.

In the foreground, a young man with a white tilak on his forehead and rudraksha malas around his neck lifts a handful of yellow food to his mouth. Beside him, a bald man in orange robes and layered rudraksha and bead necklaces holds a palm of the same food. Other saffron-clad men, some with shaved heads, are seated and eating in the background, and hands reach in from the right holding more of the yellow food.2012-04-23 +2 copiesJuly 14 20132013-07-14 +1 copiesA group of shaved-headed men in saffron-orange robes stand in a line inside a decorated hall with patterned cloth hangings and tasselled pillar covers. Several hold food offerings in their cupped hands, and those in front wear rudraksha malas and white urdhva pundra tilak on their foreheads. Behind them, others in orange dress stand near tables of prepared offerings, and in the background a person in white clothing stands near a raised platform. The scene appears to be a ritual food offering or prasadam distribution. No person is clearly identifiable as a person from the visible appearance.2013-07-10 +1 copiesJuly 10 20132013-07-10 +2 copies
