A large crowd of participants in a hall performs a group mandala process with arms raised and hands held in gestures. In the foreground, several young men wear saffron-orange cloths draped over bare upper bodies, one with rudraksha malas, and others wear white clothing. Many people fill the background in white and orange garments. The energetic movement suggests a collective meditative exercise rather than a single leader. No individual is clearly identifiable as a person from appearance alone, so the a person field is unsure.
