Night-time outdoor book and merchandise stall under a white canopy, lit by bright lamps. A woman in a teal blouse and cream-and-gold sari stands at the counter on the left, reaching toward a display of rudraksha malas and small items. Men in white shirts and white dhotis stand at the table on the right; the man in front holds up a glossy card showing a smiling bearded figure in an orange-and-yellow turban and saffron robe. Behind the table are more books, cards and boxes, with a bright orange-and-red shrine display and vehicles in the background. Two people hold no identifiable ceremonial role here; the saffron-robed figure appears only as a printed card, not as a physical person.
