A photograph of an outdoor night ceremony under a blue tarpaulin. On the left, a seated figure in a saffron-orange shawl and a dhoti, with a dark swept-back hair knot, a white vertical tilak on the forehead, a rudraksha-style red bead mala, a gold necklace and gold bangles, extends one hand toward a devotee. On the right, a man in a plain white shirt and white dhoti with a red thread on his wrist bows his head and holds out cupped hands with a small white cloth and a yellow card. Behind them, many people in white clothing sit on the ground, and a few more are visible in the background.
