A photograph inside a plainly furnished room with cream walls and a framed picture on the wall. A seated figure on the right, wearing a rust-orange cloth and a long white and yellow flower garland, holds hands pressed in namaskar while a seated woman in a dark teal saree with gold border, bangles and folded hands sits on the floor at lower left. Behind them, a young man in a white dhoti kneels holding a tall silver staff, another in orange holds a wooden box, and a cameraman in orange robes films at the back left. A brass bowl of flowers sits on the floor near the woman. Looks like a devotional darshan or blessing scene.

On the right, a man with swept-back long hair, wearing an orange-and-maroon robe and layered marigold and white flower garlands with a gold-coloured necklace, sits smiling; the appearance is consistent with a person candidate, identified by the long swept-back hair, ornate gold necklace and saffron robe, and he is receiving the ritual. Beside him, a young man in white dhoti holds a long silver staff, and three young men in orange cloth with rudraksha malas kneel or sit behind. A woman in a blue silk sari kneels in front, offering or touching a brass plate with fruit and flowers. A standing woman in a red printed kurta watches from the left, beside a refrigerator and framed picture.2014-07-10July 07 20142014-07-07 +1 copiesJuly 08 20142014-07-08July 10 20142014-07-10Photo of a padapuja at a devotee's home in a living room. A seated figure on the right wears a rust-orange robe, a multicolour flower garland and rudraksha beads, holds a silver trident and extends a hand over a plate of flowers and offerings held by a devotee at lower right. Swamiji (probable) by appearance cues: long swept-back hair, ornate gold armband and bangles, and rudraksha mala with a garland, in a teaching or blessing role. Around him, a woman in a green sari with flowers in her hair presses her palms together, a boy in a striped shirt has his hands joined, and several young men in saffron and white robes sit nearby. A small shrine with a framed deity picture and a kalasha stands in the doorway behind, with a green leaf garland overhead.2014-07-07 +1 copiesJuly 07 20142014-07-07 +1 copies
