Most participants wear orange-red saffron garments and rudraksha malas, with some in white saris and dhotis. Many sit cross-legged on mats with hands folded or in prayer, eyes closed, while brass oil lamps, small plates and offering trays are arranged on the floor in front. Several people in the back, including one in white with a red shawl, sit observing. No a person candidate is visible, and the page does not indicate his presence.
