A large seated audience of men fills a tent-covered hall with a green mat floor at a yoga programme. Most wear white shirts and white dhotis with ID lanyards around their necks, sitting cross-legged in rows. A few wear checked shirts, and one man in front has a purple cloth wrapped on his head. Their attention is directed forward toward an unseen stage. Behind them, rows of women in colourful saris sit further back under white draped fabric, and a framed portrait hangs at the upper right. The setting suggests a meditation or yoga session.
