Night photograph of two people standing with palms pressed together in anjali mudra on a dirt ground marked with coloured powder. The person on the left wears a saffron-orange sari-style garment and a white garland of flowers with red blooms, with long dark hair and a small tilak on the forehead. Beside them a man in a white collared shirt and white dhoti with gold border also stands with hands folded in greeting. Behind them a third figure in white is partly visible, and small coloured lights glow in the dark background. The scene reads as a welcoming or reverential greeting, with a probable identification of the saffron-clad figure with a garland as Swamiji (probable), based on the long hair, saffron clothing and garland.
