Several barefoot men in saffron-orange robes walk single file along a dusty path beside a grey stone block wall and a pale yellow wall. The central figure, wearing a teal head covering, long swept-back hair, a rudraksha mala and a gold pendant necklace, is accompanied by others in saffron and white garments, some with white paste marks on their foreheads and arms and surgical-style face masks. A man in a white shirt and light trousers and another in a maroon shirt walk among them. Some carry small items in their hands.
