In the centre, a man in orange robes with an orange head covering and a rudraksha mala sits cross-legged on a mat before a small brass vessel, with a fire pit of glowing embers in front of him. Beside him, a second man in orange and cream robes sits in prayer posture. Behind them, a woman in white sits beside a dark stone deity sculpture with multiple arms, and a rearing cobra sculpture stands at the right. Several seated men in white and pale shirts are in the foreground, and a woman in a blue-and-white sari and a woman in pink stand in the background near a white wall.
