A photograph of a saffron-robed man with a green head covering and white forehead markings stands in a doorway of an old pink-washed temple corridor, palms pressed together in greeting namaskar. He wears orange clothing, a rudraksha mala and a gold-coloured pendant, with white bandages on his upper arms. Beside him, an attendant in orange robes and a rudraksha mala stands at the right with a white paper. Behind them, a man in a white shirt and grey trousers watches, and another figure in white stands in the doorway at left. Weathered pillars and peeling pink walls frame the scene.
