A photograph of an open-sided pavilion with a thatched roof and mountain views behind it. A shaven-headed man in orange robes and a beaded necklace sits cross-legged before a square yantra-like arrangement of yellow powder and flower petals, with brass lamps, a kalasha-style vessel and fruit offerings nearby, apparently a ritual abhishekam. A woman in pink sits to the left, and a woman in an orange sari sits at the right of the platform. A cameraman in orange clothing films from the right, with a few seated attendees further back. A gold banner hangs behind the altar.
