A photograph of a group of devotees seated on the ground in a courtyard in bright daylight, many wearing orange shawls over white clothes. On the left, a figure in orange robes sits on a stone bench near steps, and a few people in white stand on a flight of red-and-grey steps behind the group. Trees shade the courtyard, with red and yellow pennant flags strung at the right edge. The seated devotees are attentive. The orange-clad figure seated on the bench appears to be a sannyasi, and no appearance-based candidate for a person is clearly identifiable here.
