Nearby, a bare-chested devotee wears a white dhoti and a rudraksha mala, and an older man in white holds a bead mala. Many people wear white robes, while a row of saffron-robed sannyasis sits at left, and a man in a checked shirt sits among them. Several attendees wear white identification lanyards. Wooden chairs and small tables with notebooks are arranged in rows, and framed pictures line the back wall. Roughly fifty to sixty people are visible.
