A photograph of a seated group of about two dozen men in white dhotis and white upper cloths, many with shaved heads and white marks on their bodies, sitting on orange mats on a pale tiled floor. Small oil lamps, brass dishes and bowls of offerings are placed before them. In the foreground a man in an orange robe sits at the right edge, and a whiteboard on an easel with handwritten notes stands at the upper right. Several people sit on plastic chairs in the background. The scene reads as a meditative puja gathering in an ashram hall.

Several men have sacred ash marks on their foreheads and rudraksha-style beads around their necks. One man in the foreground has his hands pressed together in prayer, another in the middle holds his palms together in prayer, and others sit with hands resting on their laps.
