Outdoors at a temple courtyard, a crowd of mostly white-shirted and white-dhoti men press closely around a central figure with a broad smile, a red-and-yellow flower garland draped over his shoulders and a white tripundra on his forehead. He wears an orange-saffron robe. Behind him stand a man with long matted dreadlocks and orange cloth, and a light-haired man in white. Multicoloured garlands hang near the group, and a man in the foreground raises a hand. Behind them, a painted temple pillar with deity statues in white and gold and a tree with pink flowers complete the scene. A child in striped clothing watches at right.

A woman in an orange sari with a red border stands at the right edge.
