Night-time evening event in a courtyard lit by a string of multicoloured bulbs. A man in rust-orange robes stands centre-frame with palms pressed together in namaste, eyes closed, with a vertical tilak on his forehead. He wears a long garland of white jasmine, pink lotus buds and red flowers, with a brown rudraksha mala beneath. Behind him a tall ornate pillar or shrine structure is partly visible. Seated devotees in white and saffron clothing fill the lower left, with striped rugs on the floor. The figure is a probable Swamiji by appearance cues: long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha mala, with the garlands and namaste pose. Approximately 20 to 30 people are visible in the crowd, which is counted here as 21-100 people.
