A doorway of a concrete building with two brown metal doors held open. A tall man in a flowing orange sleeveless robe, with long dark hair tied back, stands barefoot on a doormat with palms pressed together in greeting and a broad smile. Two women in white saris with gold borders stand to the left; the one in the middle wears a teal-bordered sari and holds a woven basket with a kalasha-style brass vessel, flowers and fruit as an offering. Behind him, a man in orange robes and glasses walks through the doorway. Outside, trees and a low building are visible under a pale sky.

At centre, a smiling man wears an orange turban, orange shawl and a long rudraksha mala, with a bare upper chest visible. Around him stand devotees in white kurta-style clothing, one woman in a red sari at the back, and others in light shirts and salwar.
