Photograph inside a large, bare warehouse-style hall with a corrugated metal roof and fluorescent tubes, the floor littered with sacks and debris. Four men walk in a line. The front figure in a rust-red dhoti-style wrap with gold-bordered cloth, a gold-bordered sash and a long beaded mala, a white forehead band, raises one hand to his head. Behind him a man in a rust-red wrap with gold borders and a rudraksha-style mala walks with a tilak. Two monks in saffron-orange robes and orange caps walk on the right; the nearer one holds a framed picture of deity figures. A bare-chested man in a white vest and checked lungi stands at left. A small ornate golden shrine or altar sits at the back right. a person candidate in saffron-clad rear figure is not clearly identifiable from appearance.
