A photograph of a seated congregation on a colourful striped mat in a large hall, with many men in white dhotis and bare upper bodies, some wearing rudraksha malas and sacred ash markings. In the foreground a man with a vertical tilak and a red shawl sits with palms joined, beside a man in white with a rudraksha mala and a bald-headed man in a saffron robe with a rudraksha mala, hands joined in prayer. Behind them, further delegates sit on the floor and on chairs with palms joined in namaskar, while a few people sit at tables toward the back. The mood is one of devotion during a gathering.
