A young shirtless boy in orange shorts climbs a tall wooden pole in a hall with pink walls, red curtains and ceiling lights. Seated on a blue mat around the pole are a man in a black and yellow sleeveless top and a shirtless young man in dark shorts, while many people in white dhotis, orange garments and bare chests sit or stand watching. Framed photographs hang on the walls and a red digital clock shows 04:25. The scene appears to be a pole-climbing demonstration at an ashram gathering.
