A large hall of men in white ritual clothes stand on red yoga mats with arms raised overhead, palms pressed together, in a standing yoga posture. Many wear white kurtas and dhotis; a few wear shirts and trousers, and one man in the foreground wears a rudraksha mala. Orange cloths lie on the mats and a water bottle sits on the floor. Framed portraits and a painting hang on the back wall of the hall, and the polished tiled floor reflects the light. Participants are seated and standing in rows, arms raised in unison.
