A photograph of a home visit inside a small room with pink and white walls and a white sheet overhead. A seated figure in saffron-orange robes with long swept-back hair, a white and pink flower garland, and a gold necklace sits on a red patterned rug, hands raised in greeting. Around them, devotees stand with palms pressed together in namaskar: a woman in a green and purple silk sari, men in white shirts, a woman holding a small child in a green and white dress, and an older woman in a dark sari. A toddler in a yellow top sits in front on the rug, and a man in a white shirt with a wristwatch joins with folded hands at right. The seated figure has distinctive saffron robes, long hair and gold necklace, consistent with a probable Swamiji presence in the home visit.
