Outdoor street scene of a sannyasi in a maroon and gold-bordered dhoti and wrap, wearing a large white and red flower garland and rudraksha malas, greeting a woman in white who has her palms pressed together. Around him stand saffron-clad young male attendants with tonsured heads, one with a tilak, plus white-clad men and women looking on. A dark SUV and leafy trees are behind them. The sannyasi's distinctive long swept hair and ornate garland match the page's reference to a person, so this is a person presence, shown in person greeting devotees.
