Inside a dim temple corridor, a group of saffron-clad sannyasis and devotees walk past a gilded doorway with ornate carved golden frames. In the centre, a man with a swept-back hair and a white forehead mark, wearing a pink and white flower garland and a rudraksha mala, stands with palms pressed together in namaskar. Beside him, a bald man in orange cloth holds a round blue-and-white emblem with a bird motif, and a bare-chested man in orange dhoti and gold necklace raises his hands in greeting. Brass lamps and a metal railing are visible at the right, and several onlookers stand in the background.
