Photograph at night of a group of men in white shirts, white dhotis and orange shawls gathered around a seated figure in saffron-orange robes with long dark swept-back hair, a white forehead mark, and a long necklace of large yellow-orange beads. The seated figure gestures with an open hand while the group smiles and listens. A man in the centre wears a white shirt and cream trousers with a rudraksha-style mala and a badge, and a young man in a white shirt holds a black folder. Dark trees form the background, and a man at right in orange clothing sits beside the central figure. A probable Swamiji candidate is visible: long swept-back hair, saffron robes and a large bead necklace. The group appears to be an ashram visit.
