A seated teacher in saffron robes and a dark turban sits on a raised wooden swing-seat with gold-trimmed carved posts beneath brass hanging lamps, speaking into a microphone on a small wooden stand. Around him in the courtyard sit a large group of young boys in orange robes and rudraksha malas, many gathered on the ground. In the foreground a bronze bowl heaped with white flowers and a red petal sits before the boys, and a seated person in red-brown clothes works at a laptop. A monk with a shaved head in saffron sits with his back to the camera, and a man in white clothes sits at the right edge. Brass lamps and bells hang nearby among potted green plants. Attached to the seat, the teacher appears to be a probable Swamiji, identified by his dark turban, saffron robes, rudraksha mala and seat of honour.
