A photograph of a domestic room with a cream wall, a framed deity picture on the left and pale yellow curtains behind. A bearded man with a bare chest and orange cloth draped over his lower body sits on a brown leather sofa, writing on a small paper, while beside him a younger figure in an orange robe and orange turban sits with hands folded. Two people in white and yellow prostrate on the floor in front, and six standing people in white shirts, white and red saris and a blue sari watch. The swami is a person candidate: long swept-back hair and a saffron turban with orange clothing, a ceremonial role shown seated, appearance uncertain, so unsure. Seven or more standing or seated people visible.
