A photograph of a crowded tent interior with orange walls and a green floor mat. In the foreground, a young man seen from behind wears a white shawl over bare shoulders and orange-red cloth around the waist, seated facing a group. Around him, a ring of seated and standing men and women in shawls, sweaters, jackets and head wraps listen attentively. A decorated gold-framed backdrop and a striped pole stand at the back, with a dark murti-like figure partly visible near the top left. A seated elderly man in an orange shawl and a standing man in a white turban are among those present. No one is identifiable as a person from appearance cues, so the central figure is described by role only.
