A photograph of a long white cloth laid across a floor, covered with rows of small hexagonal wooden bowls holding dried herbs, roots, bark pieces, seeds, spices and dried flowers, arranged for an offering. A metal bowl of mixed grains or seeds sits at the left edge on the reddish floor, and a dark maroon drape hangs behind. No people are visible. This matches the 108 food and offering items described for the Deepavali Kaali pooja and Chandi homa at the Bidadi ashram.
