In the lower left, a figure in orange saffron robes with long dark hair sits facing a circle of devotees, the face partly visible; treat as a candidate with cues of long swept hair and orange clothing, so the appearance is a person but the cues are only partial, so unsure. Around him, people in white ritual clothes wear rudraksha malas: a man in white kurta and mala in the centre, a young woman in white with orange border sari and jasmine flowers in her hair, a boy in white, and an older woman in a red floral sari. A cameraman in orange and white raises a video camera at the back, and another man in orange holds a mala-adorned posture at the right edge. Roughly fifteen to twenty people are visible.2009-09-14Indoor photo in a pale green room with framed posters on the walls.

A boy in white holds small red items on a tray. A framed poster behind shows a saffron-robed seated figure with raised hand, and another portrait shows a figure in orange.
