Outdoor photo beneath a large banyan tree with garlands strung through its branches. A long-haired man seated on a chair wears an orange saffron robe and a rudraksha mala, and his hands rest on an offering with red flowers in his lap. Several devotees in white dhotis and kurtas stand around him with folded hands, while a man in white holds a long ceremonial staff. A seated woman in an orange-bordered sari sits in a wheelchair nearby, and a small child in an orange shirt stands at left. Dirt ground and sunlight give a rural ashram setting.
