Photo of a group of devotees in rust-red and mustard-gold dhotis and sarees with rudraksha malas, gathered in a wood-panelled hall with yellow walls. A woman in a rust sari with a rudraksha mala stands at center, holding a silver tray of folded bank notes and offering them to a seated woman in a white and red shawl who holds out her hands. Around them, other devotees in matching rust and saffron-gold attire stand and watch, some with vibhuti on their foreheads and a man at right wearing a wristwatch. A woman in orange sari appears in the background. The scene reads as a devotional offering line during an ashram event.

A seated figure in saffron-orange robes with a red and yellow flower garland sits on an ornate gold throne in a pavilion-like setting with a gold-and-white draped backdrop. Before him, a devotee in orange holds a plate, while a woman in a yellow-bordered white sari and a man in white shirt and dhoti stand in a seated devotional line offering prasad and plates of fruit and sweets. Round brass bowls of food and offerings sit on the floor, and an apples-and-fruit tray stands at left beside gold lion-form ornaments. Several seated devotees in white, yellow and purple clothing watch from the sides.

A photograph inside a domestic living room during a padapuja house visit. A man with long dark hair, wearing a saffron-orange robe, a crown-like ornament, jasmine garlands and rudraksha beads, sits on an orange-covered sofa holding a silver staff topped with a trident-like finial. Before him a woman in an orange sari and a white-robed man hold a lit oil lamp over a young boy in orange and garlands. Standing on the left, an older woman in white with folded hands and a woman in a green salwar kameez watch. A framed deity picture hangs on the wall. Several people are visible.
