A photograph of a man standing in a bright orange-walled temple courtyard under a corrugated roof. He wears a saffron-yellow robe draped over one shoulder and a long rudraksha mala around his neck, with his long dark hair swept back, and his hands are folded in front of him. Behind him a line of women and a few children in white and red saris, orange shawls and a blue top stand quietly along a red carpet. A microphone stand and a small wooden lectern draped in red are at left, a red kalasha-like pillar and a red-and-gold donation or information stand are visible, and a sign reads that more than 20,000 people in 247 countries are taking darshan online. A camera operator is at the right edge.
