A photo from an indoor hall at a free healing event. A figure with long dark hair, wearing an orange robe and draped in orange cloth, sits on a low seat with head bowed and hands pressed together, receiving a blessing. An older woman in an orange shawl leans forward with her hands on the bowed figure's head. Around them, men in white dhotis and orange shawls stand and kneel, with a crowd of onlookers at the edges. Behind them hang a dark red curtain and a decorative floral-patterned banner. Oil lamps and a small table with books and sweets are visible at the right.
