A photograph of a devotional moment under a white tent with yellow and blue scalloped bunting. A man in white embroidered clothing with a beaded shawl stands at left, palms pressed together in namaste toward a smiling woman in white with a red bindi and black beaded mala. Behind them, several women in white garments with yellow shawls look on. At right, a man bows forward with his head lowered while another person in white and an orange-saffron robe places hands on his head, a blessing gesture. The man in white at left has a sweeping hairstyle and gold bangle, and the setting suggests a satsang or darshan gathering.
