Photograph of a seated group of devotees in a hall during a ritual, many with bare upper bodies and white ritual cloths. In the foreground a bald man with glasses and a dark rudraksha mala, with white sacred ash on his forehead and gold bangles, presses his palms together in anjali mudra with eyes lowered. Beside him a man with a bare chest and reddish-brown beaded necklace also sits with hands folded. Lit oil lamps and a pink mat are visible on the floor, with orange-robed figures blurred in the background. Whether the foreground man is a person cannot be determined from appearance alone.

A photograph of a group of devotees seated on the floor in a hall, many bare-chested with white vibhuti marks on their foreheads and dark rudraksha malas around their necks. In the foreground a shaved-headed man wearing thin-framed glasses sits with palms pressed together in anjali, eyes lowered in prayer. Behind him others sit in similar postures, some wearing white dhotis, and small oil lamps glow on the pink mat.

Behind him, a blurred hall holds many seated people in white clothing on mats, with framed artwork on the wall. A figure with long hair and a bare back is partly visible at the left edge. Appearance is not sufficient to confirm an identity, so the person is described by role as a devotee in prayer.2017-02-02February 02 20172017-02-02January 22 20172017-01-22January 12 20172017-01-12
