This image captures an indoor scene from the "Chanwu Medical Advanced Class VII" held on November 15, 2017, in Guangzhou, China. The event was a collaborative effort between Guangzhou Dafo Temple and Songshan Chan Institute. The photograph shows a group of approximately twenty to thirty individuals, including both monks and lay practitioners, engaged in a spiritual or martial arts training session. They are standing in orderly rows within what is identified as a fourth-floor Chan (Zen) room. Many participants, predominantly men, are dressed in traditional monastic robes of various colors, including brown, grey, black, and orange-yellow. They are seen with their hands clasped over their chests, a posture indicative of meditation, prayer, or a specific physical and spiritual exercise. The room features a warm, well-lit ambiance with decorative geometric patterns on the ceiling. Low wooden meditation benches, each topped with a cushion, are arranged on a polished wooden floor, suggesting a setting designed for quiet contemplation or practice. In the foreground, some white boxes and papers are visible on one of the benches. The participants are following the teachings of Master Dejian, who is noted as the 18th generation inheritor of Shaolin Temple Yonghuatang Wuyan Dao Gong Chanwu Medicine, the Dean of the Henan Province Songshan Chanwu Medical Research Institute, and the Abbot of Songshan Chan Institute. The overall mood conveyed by the image is one of concentration and discipline.
