A row of saffron-robed men sit cross-legged on white cloth along a covered hall, eating from banana leaves set with rice, curries, fried items and bowls. The man second from right in front, wearing glasses, rudraksha malas and beaded bangles, holds a microphone to his mouth. Others wear orange and red robes, beaded necklaces and bangles, and a shaved-headed man at far right in glasses eats with his right hand. Water bottles and plates line the cloth, while standing attendees in orange and white clothes stand behind in the background.2015-12-20 +1 copiesDecember 20 20152015-12-20 +1 copiesA seated row of devotees in saffron-orange dhotis and wraps sits cross-legged on the floor of a hall, eating from green banana-leaf plates set on a long row.

Plates hold rice, yellow dal, banana slices, pappadum-like flatbreads, pickles, coconut and small bowls, with water bottles along the edge. Their eyes are closed or lowered in prayer-like composure.
