Outdoors under a large tree with a garland of marigolds and red flowers strung across its trunk, a long-haired man in a saffron robe and rudraksha mala walks barefoot across a dark polished stone walkway. Two attendants in orange robes stand beside him; one on the left operates a video camera on a tripod, and one on the right holds a palm-leaf fan. A figure in white stands further back near a swing frame. Stone platforms and a wooden swing structure surround the scene.
