Outdoor photo of a weightlifting-style event at an ashram ground. A young girl in a white kurta and white trousers, with a lanyard, stands on a green mat under a white squat-rack frame, gripping a barbell resting on her shoulders while others watch. Around her, a crowd of ashram devotees in white dhotis, white salwar kameez and white shawls, with some in orange and saffron garments and a few in yellow, clap, cheer and raise their hands. A man on the left wears a white dhoti with a gold border and bare arms, and a shaved-head man in white stands at the back. Weight plates lie on the ground. A child in the lower right watches from the edge of the frame. Sandals and bare feet are visible on sandy ground.
