Outdoor puja at a courtyard shrine in Varanasi. On the left, a large life-size cutout portrait of a smiling bearded man wearing an orange-red turban with an Om symbol, gold necklaces, a multi-strand orange and white marigold garland, and orange-red robes, seated with raised hand; the printed portrait is not a physical person. In front, a table draped in gold cloth holds a brass bell, a brass lamp, and a plate of flowers and offerings. A shirtless man in white dhoti with gold border and rudraksha beads stands at center. A woman in a teal blouse, a bald man in a white kurta with a mala, and a boy in a yellow checked shirt and white dhoti hold plates beside a steel pot. Green cloth with red dots backs the scene; a man in sunglasses and a navy shirt stands at right.

A volunteer in a cream-gold kurta serves food from a large steel pot onto plates, while a bearded man in an orange-saffron kurta stands beside him holding a serving ladle. A large standee of a man with swept-back hair, an orange turban-style head covering and a garland of orange and yellow marigolds stands to the left against a green cloth with brown dots. Several pedestrians walk past or wait with plates, and a child in a striped top stands nearby. A brass plate and bowl sit at the lower left, and a banner reads Laxmi Venkatesh Atithi Griha.2022-03-20KASHI SARVAJNAPEETAM on 3/20/20222022-03-20KASHI SARVAJNAPEETAM on 5/14/20222022-05-14 +3 copiesKASHI SARVAJNAPEETAM on 4/17/20222022-04-17 +1 copiesKASHI SARVAJNAPEETAM on 3/20/20222022-03-20Photo 82838062022-03-20 +1 copies
