A photograph of a large seated gathering in a hall with white chairs, many participants in white, blue and saffron clothing. In the foreground several men wear rudraksha malas and wear orange-and-black eye masks, bent forward with hands in front of them as they sit in meditation or yoga practice. Behind them a crowd fills the room, and a stage screen glows at the top. The left foreground man wears a white shirt, a middle man a blue shirt with rudraksha mala, and a man on the left a white robe with orange and brown beads. No single person is clearly identifiable as a person from these cues alone.

A golden ornate palanquin with a seated deity murti or figure sits raised near the top of the frame, and a large screen is visible above the crowd. In the foreground, a man in a grey shirt looks toward the front, while a man in a blue kurta with an orange shawl sits cross-legged holding a small item. A shaved-headed man in white with a mala is at center, and a fair-haired woman in white sits nearby. No individual is clearly identifiable as a person from appearance alone, so the frame shows a ritual gathering with devotees and a procession palanquin.2016-12-06December 06 20162016-12-06
