A photograph of an indoor hall with a light-coloured tiled ceiling, ceiling fans and red curtains. A man in a saffron-orange turban, orange-and-gold robe and a long rudraksha mala stands smiling, his right palm raised over the head of a kneeling man in a white shirt with hands joined in namaste. Behind them, devotees in white clothes and folded hands wait in a line behind metal stanchions, and a woman in a yellow sari stands at the right. Probable Swamiji (the man in the saffron turban with rudraksha mala and gold-edged robe, presiding over the blessing) is present in person. A cameraman's lens is visible at the right edge. About ten people are visible.
