A photograph of a ceremonial welcome at a dirt-path entrance beside an orange building and palm trees. Two shaven-headed monks in saffron-orange robes with maroon borders walk toward a silver sedan whose rear and front doors are open. Two attendants hold up ornate, multicoloured umbrellas with yellow fringe and embroidered panels. A woman in a white sari with a yellow shawl and a man in white dhoti hold brass pooja vessels and offering trays. Signboards with Kannada text stand behind them, and a thatched hut is at right.
