Night outdoor event with a crowd of devotees behind and in front of a raised stage. A man with long swept-back dark hair wearing a saffron/orange sleeveless robe and an orange turban sits at right, smiling, with a young devotee in saffron garments beside him. Behind him stands a bald priest in an orange shawl with a large ornate gold necklace and a rudraksha mala. Devotees in white and yellow saris, a white-shirted man with a rudraksha mala, and a young man in white with a red garland stand in front, receiving blessings. Fruit such as apples sits on a table at lower right, with orange banners and stage lights in the background. The appearance-based label applies: a person is the saffron-robed man with long hair and turban, seated at right on the stage.
