A homa fire ritual in an orange-walled hall. A priest in saffron robes and a long rudraksha-style necklace sits on the floor before a brick fire pit with burning wood, reading from a paper while offerings of fruit, flowers and brass bowls surround him. Behind, a seated man in white dhoti with a shawl holds a ritual vessel, and another saffron-clad man sits with hands folded. On a red and gold throne to the left sits a person in orange garments and a flower garland with hands joined in prayer, with two children in red-and-gold sitting nearby. A printed photo collage with a caption hangs on the wall above. A fan and a glass-cased pedestal are visible at right.
