Indoor photo in a room with a large white wall-mounted screen showing faint text and numbers on the left. A man in a white short-sleeved striped shirt bends forward, receiving a folded green cloth from a person in saffron-orange robes and an orange turban. The robed person wears a long beaded necklace and a bare upper shoulder, and extends the cloth with both hands. Behind them stands a man in a white shirt with glasses, and a second robed figure in orange is partly visible. A framed ornate painting hangs on the wall, and a small wooden table holds a green box and a brass object.

August 04 20152015-08-04Indoor photograph of a ceremonial offering in a room with a large projection screen on the left and a framed painting of deities on the wall behind. A man in a white dhoti with an orange-gold shawl, glasses and short hair leans forward with hands held out. A smiling figure in orange-saffron turban, bare-shouldered orange wrap and a long rudraksha-style mala holds a wicker basket of yellow and orange flowers toward him. Another robed person in orange stands behind, and a silver puja tray sits on a low table nearby.
