Rows of seated participants sit cross-legged on green mats inside a white draped tent at an Arogya Yoga program. Men in white shirts and white dhotis sit in the foreground, many wearing lanyard badges, while women in white and yellow saris and one in orange sit behind them. A tall standing banner shows a printed portrait of a figure in a pink and gold robe; the portrait is not a physical person. Attendees are looking toward the front of the hall, and bottled water sits near the women.
