A seated man in saffron-orange robes with a long rudraksha mala and beaded gold-toned necklace places his right palm on the forehead of a short-haired man in a white t-shirt wearing a red scarf printed with mantras. The blessing man is a person candidate by appearance, with swept-back long hair and ornate ceremonial necklaces. Behind them a woman in white with a dark beaded mala and other devotees in white and red scarves watch; a golden ceremonial stand and red draped cloth frame the scene.
