A large crowd of participants sits cross-legged on striped yoga mats under a tent hung with colourful paper lanterns and ribbons, during a group yoga session. Many wear black, grey or white shirts and rudraksha or bead necklaces, and some are shirtless. In the foreground a man in a grey shirt with red beads sits with eyes closed, hands resting on his knees. Behind them a stage shows a large screen with a bright blue image of a deity murti in the centre and two side screens showing a bearded man speaking into a microphone. A white-clad figure sits in the lower right corner, and the scene is packed with hundreds of people seated on the floor.
