A photograph of an elderly man in saffron robes seated in a wheelchair with a saffron cushion on his lap, hands pressed together in namaste, in a tiled hallway. Several saffron-robed monks, some bare-chested with rudraksha malas, stand in a line behind him and one on the left bows with palms joined. Seated devotees in white and dark clothing, many with hands folded, line the wall on the right beside a white swing and chairs, and a cameraman in black kneels at the right edge filming. The scene reads as a visit or greeting.
