A group of devotees sits on the floor in prayer with palms pressed together in namaskar during a ritual at a plain white-walled hall. Most wear white dhotis and white saris with gold borders, and several wear rudraksha malas. A brick-like altar platform draped with yellow cloth and decorated with red flowers and dried leaves holds fruit, sweets and a small brass bowl. Microphones stand at the sides. Two older women sit at the back with palms joined, and a girl in a blue dress stands among them. No swami or other figure is clearly visible in the frame.
