A central figure in an orange robe with a long braided plait walks barefoot across a threshold onto a green mat, his back partly turned toward the camera. Behind him a seated figure in white sits beside a red-and-white striped platform under a yellow-and-red umbrella. Two monks in orange robes with rudraksha malas stand at the right, one holding a folded cloth. On the left a woman in a white sari with a green-and-yellow border stands by the doorway, and a line of people in white clothes stand with hands folded in namaskar. About twenty people are visible in the scene.
