Several wear orange and peach turbans, and one man in the foreground wears thick glasses and a pale orange robe with eyes closed in meditation. Bearded men in orange and white garments sit beside them, some with rudraksha or beaded malas and gold chains. Standing attendants in white kurtas stand behind the row, and a white temple tower and striped pillars with bunting appear in the background.
