A seated group gathering on a floor with colourful striped mats and a green cloth. In the centre, a young man with long curly black hair and a white vertical tilak on his forehead wears a saffron-orange robe and a dark rudraksha mala, sitting cross-legged with hands clasped and speaking. Around him, men in white kurtas and orange shawls sit in rows, some with shaved heads; a brass container and a small stone block sit on the mat in front. The room has a plain pale wall and a red curtain at the upper left. The central figure shows long swept hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha beads, but his identity cannot be confirmed from appearance alone, so the a person candidate is uncertain; the seated devotees and priests are described by role.
