Devotees seated cross-legged on a tiled floor eat a meal from green banana leaves in a hall. Women wear white kurtas and loose white garments with orange-red shawls draped over their shoulders, along with beaded necklaces and red lanyards. Several eat with their hands from small steel bowls and paper cups. Behind them stands a large golden ornate structure. Around fifteen women are visible, though some are only partly in frame.
