In the foreground a man in an orange saffron turban and orange robe bows low, his hands raised, and places his hand on the head of a younger man in a rust-brown dhoti and shawl with a long rudraksha mala and gold armband. Behind them men and women in white garments, some wearing lanyards, stand near metal stanchions with red mats on the floor; a golden throne-like seat is visible at the back. Apples lie in the bottom right corner. The bowing elder wears distinctive orange-saffron clothing and turban; the younger man wears rudraksha beads.

A man in a saffron-orange dhoti with a gold border and a long orange-beaded rudraksha-style mala blesses a devotee by placing his hand on the devotee's head. The man has long swept-back hair and gold earrings; the page states Swamiji is at this event, and the appearance cues (long swept-back hair, saffron clothing, beaded mala) are consistent, so he is a probable Swamiji. Nearby, devotees in white shirts and trousers with lanyards stand with hands folded in namaskar or bend forward in reverence. A shaven-headed priest with white tilak on his forehead and an orange shawl stands at left, and a row of women and men in white and saffron waits behind metal stanchions. A golden deity murti or throne canopy is visible in the background.2013-09-29
