A large photograph taken under a pink and white tented pavilion at a Guru Poornima gathering. Crowds fill the tent in the background, with rows of white-clad devotees seated and standing. A red carpet runs down the centre and is bordered by white and orange flower garlands. In the left foreground a man in an orange saffron robe and orange head wrap stands among devotees; he is an in-person candidate whose appearance is not distinctive enough to confirm identity, so he is described only by role. Nearby, a woman in a teal top, a woman in an orange shawl with folded hands, and an older woman with grey hair in a white sari with folded hands stand at the edge of the frame. On the right, men in white and blue shirts stand with hands joined in greeting.
