A photograph in a dim, dark interior with wooden walls and a grilled window, showing a crowd of men around a central seated elder. In the centre, a white-bearded elder in saffron robes sits on a blue plastic chair, with tripundra marks on his forehead, his hands folded at his lap. Beside him, a bald man in saffron robes with red and white forehead markings bends forward, while a man in a saffron turban and rudraksha mala gestures with an open hand and holds a book. Others in white dhotis, pale pink and striped shirts stand around, some wearing white forehead marks.
