Outdoor photograph of a fire-walking event at an ashram courtyard with a red-roofed building and palm trees behind. A young man in white dhoti and shawl stands with palms pressed together at the edge of a long trench filled with glowing charcoal and ash. Around him, devotees in white clothes and dhotis stand in a line, several with hands folded or raised in prayer, and some hold long bamboo poles. Children in checked shirts watch from the right. Dirt ground and light sand surround the pit.
