A dense crowd of many Indian men, women and children fills a steep stone stairway or ghat-like walkway. Many wear plain shirts, kurtas and salwar kameez in pink, red, green, yellow and white; several women wear head coverings and dupattas, and a few men carry backpacks or wrap cloths around their necks. A uniformed police officer in khaki stands near the middle, and metal railings line the edges. The scene reads as a pilgrimage or public gathering, with no visible Swamiji, deity, or ritual object identifiable among the people.
