A photograph inside a tent with orange fabric walls and large devotional posters of Shiva with trident and snakes behind the group. A bearded man in orange robes and sunglasses holds a gilded framed painting of a seated bearded sage with a kamandalu, while a man in a maroon-and-gold dhoti and a red turban with gold armbands receives it. A bearded man in orange on the left wears a rudraksha-style pendant, and another bearded man in orange with gold beads stands at right. Cushions with red and gold patterns cover the floor. Some of the men resemble a person figure in the maroon-and-gold garments with a red turban, but the appearance is uncertain, so this is recorded as unsure. Four people are visible.
