Many wear white kurtas and loose white clothes with red-orange shawls or saffron stoles, and some wear rudraksha malas. A man in a red t-shirt stands at the far left, and a man in white stands at the right edge. A few people hold small white papers. Several participants have shaved heads, and one has long curly hair. Other people stand in the background near white tent walls and bright openings. No a person candidate is clearly visible among the seated devotees, so no identification is made.
