Photograph of a row of saffron-robed sannyasis seated cross-legged on the floor at a long table set with banana leaves and food, including rice, fried items and paper cups of drink. The foremost monk, bald and wearing glasses, sits with hands pressed in prayer and wears orange robes, rudraksha malas and beaded bracelets. Beside him, another monk holds a microphone and others seated along the row have shaven heads, orange robes and sacred ash markings on their arms. Behind them hang framed posters on a red wall and a stainless-steel pot sits on a side table. A partly visible attendant in white stands at the left edge.
