A photograph of a group of people sitting cross-legged in meditation on dry leaf litter beneath a large banyan tree with massive hanging aerial roots and spreading branches. Most participants wear white ritual clothing with orange shawls draped over their shoulders, and several wear rudraksha-style beaded necklaces. A figure in the left foreground wears white with an orange shawl, and an older person with white head covering sits at the far left. Others are seated on low stone platforms and rocks around the trunks, and a wooden board lies on the ground near the center. The scene is an outdoor meditation session under the banyan canopy.

A group of about twenty people sit cross-legged in meditation beneath a large, sprawling banyan tree with many aerial roots and wide low branches. Most wear white clothes, and several have orange or saffron shawls draped over their shoulders. They are seated on the dry leaf-strewn ground in loose rows, some on small mats, others on rocks or low stones.
