A photograph of a seated devotee event indoors. A long-haired figure on the right wears an orange saffron robe and sits on a raised seat, accepting a small blue card from a white-clad elderly man with a white moustache who holds it in both hands. Behind them a white-draped table holds plates of food, trays and printed booklets. A woman in a white sari with a red bindi sits at the upper left, and a man in a white shirt and orange shawl sits behind them. Two women in the foreground, one wearing orange and gold bangles, are partly visible at the bottom. The orange-robed figure has distinctive long swept-back hair and saffron clothing, which fits the page's a person claim, so this is a probable in-person candidate.
