Outdoor photograph of a group of men seated cross-legged in a paved courtyard, bare-chested and wearing white dhotis with thin cords around their torsos, on blue cushioned mats with pink and green yoga mats in front. Behind them stands a yellow ornate domed pavilion and wooden poles, with a small yellow shrine structure and a flag-topped tower in the background. A single shaven-headed man in orange robes and rudraksha malas sits at the far right edge of the frame. Trees and a parked vehicle line the scene under an overcast sky.
