A photograph of a devotional gathering in an ashram hall with a painted backdrop of a large tree and a temple gopuram. A man with long dark hair, wearing an orange robe, rudraksha mala and gold necklace, sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne decorated with flower garlands, smiling; this is a Swamiji (probable) by appearance cues, with the page noting the event involved him. Two men in white kneel before the throne, one offering something with his hands, and a woman in white with an orange shawl kneels at the right beside a small table with fruit. Two men in orange and saffron clothing sit at left, one bare-chested with painted markings and one with a rudraksha mala, and a brass oil lamp stands near the throne.
