Outdoor evening scene on a dirt ground with palm trees and a low wall behind. A group of saffron-robed sannyasis walks together. In the centre, a figure in an orange robe with long dark hair and a dark beaded rudraksha mala, hands joined in front, walks beside an elderly man in white dhoti and shawl, barefoot. To the right, a bearded sannyasi in orange wrap with bare chest and a loose orange cloth gestures with an open hand. Behind them, other orange-robed monks and men in white shirts follow. The figure in orange with the mala shows distinctive long hair and rudraksha cues, so this is a person presence walking with monastics.
