Photograph of a padapuja ritual: a seated figure in a maroon-red robe with gold-bordered hems rests bare feet on a silver tray filled with pink and white flower petals, a small gold lamp and offering items. The ornate silver throne with carved armrests and a silver pillar is in the foreground. Several blurred devotees sit in the foreground and right side, one raising a hand in a gesture, and a person in a green garment stands behind the throne. The figure's face is not visible, so no identification is made.
