A photograph inside a hall with pink walls and red curtains. A seated bearded man in an orange robe, with long white hair tied back, extends his hand toward a bald man in a dark-red and saffron robe wearing a long gold-and-beaded necklace; this bald man bends forward with hands raised in respect. Beside them a woman in a rust-red sari with glasses presses her palms together in greeting. Behind them several monks in orange and saffron stand, one with a rudraksha mala. A golden deity murti and garlands of orange and white flowers are at right, with a red-and-white patterned carpet and cushioned throne in front. A TV screen and a row of seated devotees in the background.
