A large tented hall with a white draped ceiling and pink brick walls holds a crowd of people standing with white cloth blindfolds tied over their eyes. In the foreground a young woman in a white kurta wears a red beaded mala and a lanyard, beside a woman in a white kurta with a yellow lanyard and a woman in a white top and dark skirt with a yellow lanyard. A man in a blue t-shirt with a lanyard stands among them, and a woman in a red-bordered white sari with a rudraksha mala stands at right. Orange and green yoga mats cover the floor, with backpacks and bags placed on them. Many others in white and orange clothing fill the background, and a dark ceiling fan and lights hang overhead. The image is an ashram-style group exercise with participants blindfolded.
