A photo taken in a crowded temple corridor at night, with people moving through a narrow passage lined with shops and glass display cases. At centre, a smiling man with a white and red forehead mark and long hair wears a saffron-orange robe and a long beaded gold necklace, with gold bangles on his wrists; he appears to be the Swamiji (probable), walking among saffron-clad followers. Behind him, saffron-robed attendants and devotees follow. To the right, a man in white dhoti with a gold border and rudraksha malas carries a ceremonial staff, and several people in white and in shirts crowd the frame. On the left, a man in a white shirt stands with his back to the camera.
