A bright hall with pink curtains and draped tassels shows a crowd of devotees gathered around a smiling man in a saffron-orange robe with a rudraksha mala and ornate gold-bead necklace, bare-armed with a red-beaded band, hair swept back, wearing gold-framed glasses and a red tilak. He holds a white cloth wrapped object, while a woman in a teal chevron kurta with a white shawl and black beaded mala leans toward him. Nearby a woman in a maroon sari with a yellow border and braid stands, an elderly woman in a green sari sits in a chair at left, and others in white and saffron clothing stand behind.
