Night photo on a dirt road lit by floodlights and car headlights. A central figure with long swept-back dark hair wears an orange robe and a long white-and-pink flower garland, raising one hand in greeting while smiling. Behind a dark SUV, devotees in white dhotis and saffron-robed sannyasis, some with rudraksha malas, stand with palms joined. Another figure in a white dhoti and red-bordered shawl with a bare chest and ornate necklace holds his hands together at left. Trees and a light pole frame the background.
