A photograph inside a narrow cave-like passage beside a barred metal grille window with a shrine behind it. A man in long flowing saffron-orange robes and a long rudraksha mala stands at center, with long dark hair swept back and a red bindi on his forehead. Two partial figures appear at the edges, one in the foreground right in a white shirt and one at the left edge. A red box marked donate box in Hindi and English sits below the grille, a painted image of Hanuman is on the wall at left, and a yellow banner reading Om Namah Shivaya is hung above with colourful garlands strung along the wall.
