A photograph of a large hall where many participants in black and grey clothing sit cross-legged on colourful striped yoga mats arranged on a red floor. At the centre front, a man in a saffron-orange robe stands facing the group beside a stage with red drapes, a dark backdrop, and a large deity murti on a raised red platform flanked by ceremonial staffs. Hanging tassels and lanterns decorate the ceiling, and a gilded shrine with figures stands at the right. Some people sit on mats in the foreground with their backs to the camera, and a camera crane is visible. The man in orange cannot be confirmed from appearance, so the identity is left unsure.
