Outdoor photo of a circle of devotees on green lawn beneath tropical trees and palms. A bare-chested man in orange-and-maroon dhoti-style wrap with rudraksha-style beads stands centre-left with arms outstretched, beside a woman in cream and gold sari. Around them stand a man in a light blue kurta, a woman in purple and blue patterned sari, a man in white with a sash, and many others in saris, salwar and casual clothes, some wearing lanyards and orange-red shawls. Some onlookers have their backs to the camera, including a woman in orange sari and a woman in pink sari. The bare-chested central figure shows distinctive adornments but his identity is uncertain from appearance alone.
