Photo of a long-haired figure in a flowing orange robe standing on the steps of a white columned building with potted plants, smiling as visitors greet them. A man in a dark navy shirt bends low with hands together, touching the ground before the figure, while a man in a grey checked shirt stands at left with hands clasped and a woman in white with a bangle gestures in greeting. A man in an orange robe with a saffron shawl stands nearby. Flowering marigolds and a red plant sit in pots by the steps. The orange-robed figure has distinctive long hair and orange clothing, so this is a probable Swamiji in person.
