Group photograph of about fifteen men standing in front of a thatched-roof structure with a whitewashed wall and paved floor. In the centre, a bald man with a white beard wears saffron-orange robes and dark sunglasses, with a man in yellow robes beside him. Another bald man in a red-orange shawl stands at right, and a man in white kurta with a saffron scarf and rudraksha mala stands nearby. Men in white shirts and dhotis flank the group, and a table with a cup and plate stands at left beside a blue bag.

Several participants wear rudraksha malas and white or cream clothing.
