A photograph of a large yoga session in a decorated hall with white draped ceiling and hanging colourful paper lanterns. A standing man in an orange-saffron shawl and orange dhoti, with long dark dreadlocks, stands barefoot on a red mat facing a seated audience. Many participants sit on striped mats wearing black clothes, some reclining or stretching, and a red-and-gold throne-style seat with a brass vessel stands at the right. A projector screen and camera on a tripod are visible. The standing man is an appearance-based probable match for a person based on his long hair and saffron clothing, but the image gives no clear confirmation. Around thirty people are visible.
