Several young men in orange dhoti-style lower garments sit on the floor at a gathering, bare-chested and wearing rudraksha malas, gold-coloured sacred cords and bracelets, with white paint markings on their faces and arms. The central young man holds a handheld microphone and speaks while others around him sing or chant with open mouths. Behind them a woman in a green and yellow sari sits in a chair, and other attendees, plastic water bottles and a wall of framed black-and-white photographs are visible in the background.
