A photograph inside a covered hall with a corrugated metal roof and white walls, where a central figure in an orange-saffron robe and a long multicoloured flower garland walks past metal railings. Around him, devotees in white and orange stand with palms pressed together in namaste; a young man in a white shirt holds a camera, a boy in a blue shirt stands beside the railing, and a woman in a green sari and a woman in white kneel near the front. Behind them hang brass ceremonial staffs with a trident, and strings of leaves decorate the ceiling. Wall posters and framed photographs are visible in the background.
