A tall man with long, swept-back dark hair wears saffron-orange robes draped over one shoulder and holds a silver-topped walking stick; he has a distinctive appearance with long hair and saffron clothing, so this is a probable Swamiji in person, looking toward the left. To the left, an older man in white kurta and white dhoti with an orange shawl stands barefoot near a circular raised platform covered in red flower offerings and a black-and-white garlanded shrine. Behind them a younger man in white with an orange shawl and a lanyard stands near the offerings. Dry earth ground, a black garlanded object and metal pole stand behind the platform.
