Nithyanandapedia
A busy annadan food service inside a thatched-roofed pavilion. Several men and women in plain white shirts and white clothing stand behind large steel pots, serving yellow and orange food onto paper plates, some dispensing from ladles and others holding plates forward. A young man in white with a rudraksha mala around his neck serves spiral-shaped snacks from a large pot in the foreground, while a man on the left holds out a plate of yellow food. Steam rises from the pots. Behind them, banners and a framed portrait hang on the wall, and a few more people in white stand in the background. No one in the image is clearly identifiable as the a person.
