A large hall with cream walls, red curtains and striped blue-and-white floor mats where a group sits cross-legged in a yoga or meditation session. Many participants wear white kurta-style clothes, while others wear casual shirts, and several have vertical tilak marks on their foreheads. Their hands are raised to their ears in a meditative posture. A small child in a green-and-yellow shirt sits among them. Framed portraits hang on the walls, including a large one of a man in a yellow garment and smaller ones of figures in red and white, with a deity-style painting among them.
