Photo of a seated gathering in an open-air temple courtyard with red walls and stone pillars. A bearded man in an orange-red wrap stands near the centre, in front of a large red-and-gold deity murti of a seated elephant-headed figure with a trunk. Around him, a circle of devotees sits on the stone floor, many in white dress, a few in saffron, yellow, green and pink; some wear garlands and a woman has a long red-brown braid. A green-clad elderly woman and a bald man in white sit in the foreground. Ornate wooden swing or palanquin frames, hanging brass lamps and a plastic water bottle are visible. The scene suggests a satsang or teaching session.
