A photo of an outdoor temple setting where a man seated on a leopard-patterned mat wears a maroon robe, a red-and-white flower garland and a rudraksha mala, smiling as a devotee in red and orange robes bows low and another man in an orange shawl presses a hand to his chest. The seated man is a plausible in-person candidate given his swept hair, ornate beaded necklace and ceremonial garland, though this is an appearance-based label only; the bowing devotee, standing monks in orange and maroon, and a hooded person in an olive jacket are also present. Behind them are a silver-clad altar with lion reliefs, a stone lion statue, orange and red cloth, and a small crowd of onlookers.
