Several devotees kneel and prostrate on a tiled floor in a hall with a red curtain, foreheads pressed to the ground and palms joined above their heads in namaskar. The foreground figures wear orange saffron robes with yellow borders and rudraksha malas; behind them, others wear white dhotis and one wears a red shawl. Brass plates with offerings sit nearby, and a mat lies at the left edge. The scene is a group prostration during puja or satsang.2011-12-29November 28 20112011-11-28December 31 20112011-12-31A photograph of a pada puja in progress in an indoor hall with a tiled floor.

Another shaved-headed man in orange is partly visible at the lower right, and a woman in orange sits at the left edge. Behind them, more participants sit in orange and white clothing, and a pale pink container and small bowls sit on the floor in front.

In the foreground a man with long dark hair kneels prostrate in a saffron-orange robe, his back bare, wearing a gold necklace. Facing him, an older bald man in a large orange-saffron shawl draped over his head and body kneels on a cushioned seat and places both hands on the prostrate man's back in blessing. Two standing men in white shirts and white trousers, one wearing a rosette ribbon, watch at the back left. A potted plant with pink flowers stands at the right. Two people are visible in the scene besides partial figures at the edge. The kneeling blessing figure has no clearly distinctive identifying cues beyond ordinary saffron robes, so identity is uncertain.2007-01-30November 09 20112011-11-09September 15 20112011-09-15October 26 20112011-10-26November 04 20112011-11-04
