Beside him a man in a long white kurta and white trousers gestures with one hand, and a bald man in a black kurta stands nearby. Around the edge, about fifteen men wear orange robes or orange kurtas, while some wear red, grey or black t-shirts and jeans; several have long hair and beards. A man in a black t-shirt at left films with a camera on a tripod. Behind the fence stand a white stone statue, a red van, a corrugated shed and trees. Whether any cream-and-gold clad figure is a person cannot be confirmed from appearance.
