A photograph of an annadhan food-offering event in an indoor hall with white walls and fluorescent lights. A seated woman in an orange-red sari with a rudraksha mala serves food from a metal plate on a white cloth. Beside her a standing bearded man in orange robes gestures, and a second man in orange sits nearby. Seated devotees in white dhotis and shirts watch, and steel vessels, a green leaf plate and a water bottle sit on a woven mat. Behind them hang a red curtain and a colourful cylindrical decoration, and a black plaque in the corner reads Nithyananda Vidyalaya.
