A photograph of a large indoor hall where many women sit cross-legged on red mats in rows, each wearing a white blindfold across the eyes. Most wear white or cream saris, one in a pale blue border and another in maroon. The woman in the foreground at left, in a white sari with a red garland, reaches both hands behind her head to tie or adjust her blindfold. Others sit with hands folded in prayer. Water bottles and bags sit on the floor, and the polished floor reflects the seated rows. Wall banners and ceiling lights are visible behind them.
