A photograph of a food service line in an indoor hall with large windows. Servers in dark grey shirts stand behind steel chafing dishes of yellow rice and other dishes, using ladles, and a large pot of yellow rice sits on the counter in front. A man in a white shirt and white dhoti with a rudraksha mala and gold bracelet holds a banana-leaf plate of rice, vegetables and a yellow fruit. Other men in white and striped shirts stand in the queue, some wearing name badges. The scene reads as annadan prasad distribution at a satsang gathering.

A man in the foreground wears a checked short-sleeved shirt, an orange cloth draped over his shoulder and an orange-hued lower garment, serving yellow sweets or fried snacks from a steel pot onto a metal plate. Beside him, a man in a grey shirt and a younger man in a white shirt also serve from large steel vessels. In the left foreground a person in white clothing with a rudraksha-style beaded necklace faces away from the camera. Behind them, a crowd of people in white and light clothing waits in line along a corridor with bright light at the far end. A steel bucket of food sits at the lower right.

In the foreground a man on the left with a white forehead mark holds a ladle over a steel pot, while a man in a white shirt on the right lifts a plate. A older man with a rudraksha mala and white forehead marking stands in the centre serving. Plates hold flatbread and a golden fried food. Several people are visible; the scene shows food service at a temple-style event.

A photograph of a serving line in a large indoor hall where men in white shirts and white trousers serve food onto steel plates from stainless steel trays. Several servers wear orange lanyards and some have rudraksha malas around their necks. One server in the foreground holds a plate of rice, yellow dal and green vegetables, while others use tongs and spoons to serve from the trays. A steel bucket with a yellow handle sits in front of the counter, and people wait in line behind, some in white and others in casual clothes. This appears to be a communal meal service, with servers wearing disposable plastic gloves.
