A photograph of an ashram scene. A man seated on an ornate carved wooden throne with red and silver inlay wears a maroon-red turban, a multicolour marigold and rose garland, rudraksha mala beads, a bare upper body and gold armlets, and holds a small cup while smiling. Beside him a woman in an orange sari with white jasmine in her hair leans forward, and nearby a tray holds apples, lemons and food. Several shaved-headed men in saffron and orange robes with rudraksha malas stand behind, one holding an apple. A carved wooden panel hangs on the wall behind them.
