A photograph in an ashram hall showing two young women in orange sannyasi-style clothing performing an acrobatic display. One woman in orange is balanced upside down on the shoulders or hands of another, her legs spread and held by the supporting woman, who smiles broadly. Behind them, a woman in white sari with a sash and garlands stands beside a woman in red and a seated row of devotees in orange and white. On the right, a golden decorated seat or chair and figurines of deities in saffron, gold and purple cloth stand on a pedestal. Framed photo panels on the walls show Kumbh Mela 2017 at Prayag and a sannyas gathering of saffron-robed sadhus. Red curtains hang at the top. Photographers and seated audience members line the bottom edge.
