Two sannyasis in saffron-orange robes walk away from the camera across a polished white tiled hall. Their heads are shaved and one wears an orange turban-like cloth. Several framed photo panels hang on the cream walls, and a black chair and a few seated people in the background suggest an ashram or temple space. A red cushion and sandals lie on the floor. A woman in a white sari with a red shawl stands near a doorway, and a person in white stands further right. Several seated people in saffron and red garments sit along the left wall.
