A seated congregation with eyes closed in meditation or prayer in a crowded hall. Foreground: a bald man in a rust-red robe with a pendant necklace and white forehead stripes sits with eyes closed. Beside him an older man with grey hair wears a white dhoti and shawl with a rudraksha mala and white markings on his arm. To the right a man in an orange-saffron garment with a rudraksha mala and white forehead band sits with head bowed. Behind them more devotees in white and cream clothes, one with a black headband, and a man with a beard in blue. Yellow ritual poles stand in the background. The scene resembles a satsang gathering. No appearance-based a person candidate with sufficient cues is present.2017-01-29January 29 20172017-01-29November 27 20172017-11-27January 29 20172017-01-29January 29 20172017-01-29Shaved-headed men in saffron-orange cloth and rudraksha malas sit cross-legged on a floor in a large gathering, several with white sandalwood marks on their foreheads and arms.
