A photograph on a stage with a red carpet and a green banner bearing red and blue Kannada text and a row of circular and rectangular portrait photos. A young man in an orange robe and orange turban stands centrally, with rudraksha malas around his neck, while another young man in a white shirt and dark trousers places his hand on the robed figure's head in a blessing. Behind them a boy in white clothes and an orange shawl holds a gold-edged tray. Two boys in white shirts and grey trousers with rudraksha malas sit in meditation on the red carpet, eyes closed, hands in mudra. The person in orange does not match the appearance cues of the page subject, so this is recorded only as a robed devotee and no identity is asserted.
