A homa fire burns in a low brick-walled ritual hall, with a square fire pit of offerings in the centre surrounded by oranges, marigolds, red flowers and a plate of fruit. A bare-chested priest in white dhoti with a pink headwrap sits cross-legged in the foreground, tending the fire with a ladle. Behind him a priest in white with a sash sits on a striped rug. Near the doorway at the back, several women stand in white saris and one in an orange sari, with pale garlands, holding plates and looking toward the entrance. A woman in orange with tilak on the right sits among flower-decorated brass pots. A bilingual sign on the left lists photography, video and audio recording as strictly prohibited.

A homa fire burns in a square brick fire pit on a striped woven mat in an ashram hall, with flower garlands, fruit, bananas and vessels arranged around it. A bare-chested priest in white dhoti and shoulder cloth, with a headband, kneels at the front and tends the fire. Another seated man in white cloth sits to the left beside brass lamps, and a man in white cloth bends over offerings near a doorway. Two women in white saris and one woman in an orange sari stand at the entrance beneath a wall sign listing prohibited photography, video and audio recording. Nothing in the image identifies a specific person as a person.2017-02-22February 22 20172017-02-22February 22 20172017-02-22February 22 20172017-02-22February 22 20172017-02-22February 22 20172017-02-22February 22 20172017-02-22February 22 20172017-02-22February 22 20172017-02-22April 03 20172017-04-03April 03 20172017-04-03April 03 20172017-04-03
