A photo from a seated session in a white-draped hall. In the foreground, a young man in a black t-shirt with a dark-framed eye mask sits facing an older man in white kurta-style clothing, a rudraksha mala around his neck and a white vibhuti mark on his forehead; he raises his hand toward the young man in an explaining gesture. Behind them, rows of seated participants wear white clothes, rudraksha malas and dark eye masks, and an orange cloth bundle rests on a chair. No printed name is legible on the people, and no identity is asserted from appearance.
