A smiling man with long dark hair walks along a dirt path under a shelter, wearing a rust-orange unstitched robe with gold-bordered wrap and a dense rudraksha mala around his neck, with a red tilak on his forehead. Behind him a second man in an orange robe and rudraksha mala walks barefoot, with a sunlit orange umbrella overhead. Along the left pillars hang garlands of yellow, red, purple and white flowers. A man in a white T-shirt and red shawl walks at right, and other people in white clothing are visible in the background, with puddles on the ground. Swamiji (probable) is the smiling man in front, identified by the rudraksha mala, orange robe, long hair and tilak.
