Photograph of a padapuja-style honouring in an ashram hall with gold curtains. A seated figure in a saffron-orange robe sits on an ornate gold throne, holding a red fruit, with bare feet resting on a flower-strewn tray. Beside the throne stands a person in an orange robe with long dark hair, hands joined in respect. An older man in white clothes and a white garland stands at a table with fruit and a bowl, gesturing. A young man in white holds a gilded framed portrait of a saffron-clad figure with a rudraksha mala. A woman in a pink sari prostrates on the floor, and a flower arrangement and brass vase sit at right.
