A photo of a joyful group singing and playing instruments indoors beside large windows with green trees outside. A long-haired figure in a flowing orange robe sits centrally, laughing with eyes half-closed and a small white card in hand. Behind and around them, a band of people in white t-shirts and white clothes plays a conga-style drum, guitar, tambourines and a harmonium labelled BINA in front. Several standing musicians raise their hands, and seated devotees in white clap and sit cross-legged on the floor. A wall clock and a metal frame stand in the room.
