Photograph of a seated group of young women and girls in saffron-orange ashram clothing during a ritual. Several hold small brass oil lamps (diyas) lit with flames, and the foremost girls wear rudraksha malas and white vertical forehead marks. Some have palms pressed together in prayer while others extend a hand toward the lamps. Brass and a clear plastic bag with offerings are visible at lower left, and seated figures fill the background.
