Six women sit cross-legged in a row on a white tiled floor in namaste, palms pressed together, eyes closed, with small brass oil lamps set along the floor in front of them.

A deep red curtain hangs behind them, and a wall board lists photography and camera rules in Tamil and English. A seventh woman is partly visible at the far right edge.
