A wide photograph of a bright hall with a white marble floor where a group of about 30 shaved-headed men in saffron-orange robes sit cross-legged in rows, many with palms pressed together in greeting. Green leaf plates with food sit before them, and steel bowls and small cups are set along the rows. Standing women in saffron and white saris move through the space, and a golden throne at right holds a seated figure in orange robes, with a garlanded ornate chair beside it. A framed portrait hangs high on the left wall, and colourful tassel hangings decorate the ceiling. The scene resembles a group meal or puja in an ashram hall.
