A night-time outdoor gathering where a bare-shouldered, long-haired man in a loose orange wrap sits on a wooden chair and reaches to touch the forehead of a short-haired, older man in an orange t-shirt with a dark cord necklace, whose hands are raised in front of him in a receiving gesture. Behind them, blurred devotees in white and dark clothing sit along a railing under bright lights. The wrap-wearing seated figure shows distinctive long swept-back hair and saffron clothing, matching the Swamiji (probable) appearance cues; he is physically present. A pink cloth and orange fabric rest on a low table at right.
