A barefoot woman in a white sari with a rudraksha mala around her neck walks across a shallow pit of glowing-grey embers during a fire walking ritual. Bystanders in white shirts and dhotis, many wearing ID lanyards and rudraksha malas, line both sides of the pit, holding bamboo poles for support. A man in a white shirt stands in the left foreground. Behind them stands an orange-walled building with a corrugated green roof, and a drum is visible among the crowd. No clearly identifiable a person candidate is visible in the scene, so the a person field is set to none.
