A photograph of two men seated across a metal-topped table in a plain room with white walls and a barred window. The man on the left, seen from behind, has long dark hair and wears a bare-shouldered orange cloth, sitting on a white plastic chair and reaching toward the table. The man on the right wears orange robes, an orange-brown wrap over his shoulders and an orange-brown head covering, with spectacles, and sits behind a table set with steel plates, bowls, cups and water bottles. A white cloth hangs behind them and a handwritten paper sign on the wall reads SWAMIJI'S UMBRELLA PLEASE DO NOT USE. The scene looks like an ordinary meal or meeting between ashram residents.
