A photograph of a devotional line at a temple-like hall. A man in a red top with a cream-gold turban and long swept-back dark hair, wearing a red-and-gold wrap, rudraksha-style beaded necklace and gold armbands, smiles while reading a white paper handed to him by a woman in white with a black braid and a dark beaded necklace. She holds a framed photograph of a smiling figure with long hair in orange robes. Behind them, men and women in white clothing and eyeglasses stand in a queue, and a man with a gray moustache wears a lanyard-style beaded necklace. The man in red shows distinctive appearance cues consistent with the event's a person candidate, so the identity is probable from appearance, though he is seen only reading a paper, not in a throne-style setting. Pictured devotees appear in white ritual clothing, consistent with a satsang queue.
