A photograph of a sheltered courtyard pavilion with wooden pillars and orange fringed draping. A man with long dreadlocks and a bare chest, wearing an orange-brown dhoti-style wrap, sits cross-legged on a red cushion and serves food from a steel tray. Probable Swamiji by cues: long swept-back hair and a distinctive ochre wrap, seated as the one offering food. Around him, a group of young people in orange and saffron garments wear rudraksha-style beaded malas, some seated and others standing behind. A woman in a brown sari and a woman in a cream outfit hold bowls and a ladle, serving food on a zebra-print cloth with steel bowls and a microphone nearby. Hanging brass lamps and chains decorate the pavilion ceiling.
