A mountain stream in a pine-forested valley, with a large grey boulder rising from rocky riverbed. Many people in orange and saffron clothing stand, sit and gather around the water and rocks, some in white and red saris. A figure in long flowing orange robes with dark hair stands atop the boulder, one arm extended toward the crowd. Others wave their arms and reach toward the water, and a few sit on the rocks in the foreground. Tall conifers and steep slopes frame the scene under bright sunlight.
