July 02 20172017-07-02Dense crowd of devotees seated closely together in a hall, many with eyes closed and hands raised to their foreheads in a meditative or devotional posture. Most wear white clothing; several men have white vibhuti or tilak marks across their foreheads and rudraksha malas around their necks and wrists. One man in front wears an orange-saffron cloth over his shoulder with a rudraksha mala. No a person candidate is clearly identifiable among the visible people, and no throne or stage figure is distinguishable in the foreground. Blurred background figures and warm lights suggest a large satsang or initiation gathering.2017-07-02 +1 copiesJuly 02 20172017-07-02 +2 copiesJuly 02 20172017-07-02 +1 copiesA large group of men sits cross-legged in rows on a white floor during a ritual gathering.

Several men raise both fists to their heads in a gesture, while others hold small books or sit with hands folded. Brass and gold-toned poles and ritual items are visible in the foreground. A few younger boys sit among the men, and the room is decorated with colourful bunting across the top.
