A photograph of a child in a red top prostrating face-down on a white raised platform, hands folded beside the head, in front of a black tripod microphone stand. Behind, a person in an orange garment stands at right beside a white cushion with a red top, and several people in white clothing stand at left and center. The setting appears to be a devotional prostration during a sacred gathering.

December 12 20092009-12-12July 20 20102010-07-20A photograph of a young girl in a white embroidered top bowing forward with her head resting on the lap of a seated person wearing an orange-and-maroon garment. Her hand rests flat on the person's knee, and a red cushion or mat lies beneath. A metal plate sits on a wooden surface in the upper right background. The setting appears to be an indoor devotional gathering with a respectful padapuja-style gesture of obeisance.2006-10-21July 02 20092009-07-02A young man in a cream checked kurta, with a silver-toned cord around his neck, bends forward prostrate on a red floor covering, his forehead touching the bare feet of a seated figure. That figure wears a saffron-orange robe draped over the lap and a wooden walking stick rests against the seat. Behind, another person in white trousers stands at the edge of the frame. The scene looks like a padapuja, the ritual of honouring a guru's feet, though the identity of the seated figure cannot be established from appearance alone.2006-10-08A photograph of a figure with long dark hair in a red sleeveless top and a flowing orange wrap, standing on a white step with hands pressed together in anjali and head bowed, in front of a white padded seat with bolster cushions. A dark red velvet curtain hangs behind, with potted palms, a white-draped table holding a tray of flowers, a microphone stand and a patterned red rug on the stage.2009-08-17October 08 20062006-10-08November 05 20102010-11-05A photograph of a person in a full prostration on a pale marble-look stage floor, face down with arms extended forward. The person wears a white kurta with a white embroidered sleeve and a red-orange shawl draped over the shoulders. A bangle is visible on the wrist and bare feet are on the floor. Behind is a large orange cushioned backrest with a dark wooden frame, and a low orange cushioned bench sits to the right. A small microphone cable runs along the floor at the left edge. The person's identity cannot be determined from appearance, and the figure is in prostration rather than a seated pose, so the a person field is unsure.2010-02-20May 20 20132013-05-20September 20 20112011-09-20A close photograph of a devotee in a white kurta prostrating face-down on a beige carpet, forehead and hands touching the floor before a standing figure's bare feet. The standing figure wears a rust-orange cloth with a darker orange border, visible only from the knees down. The devotee's wrist shows a dark bead bracelet. The gesture suggests padapuja-style reverence, though only the feet and prostrating body are shown.2013-01-23
