Several young girls in saffron-orange robes sit closely together on the floor, smiling as they hold a small lit oil lamp, its flame visible at the centre. The girls wear white vibhuti lines on their foreheads, red kumkum dots, and rudraksha mala necklaces and bracelets. Behind them, other devotees in orange and red garments and gold-bordered saris sit and raise their hands in ritual gestures. The setting is a hall with a plain floor and pink and white floral decorations near the bottom edge.
