Photograph of a stage event at the Vaicharik Mahasabha in Ujjain. Seated on white sofas in front of a painted backdrop of a forest riverside with a sage teaching students, a bearded elder with long white hair sits bare-chested in a white dhoti with a rudraksha mala and a gold-coloured necklace, holding a yellow cloth. Beside him a man in a cream Nehru jacket, white kurta and a brocade cap sits. To the left, shaven-headed monks in orange robes sit, and on the far right a woman in red-orange clothing with a beaded gold necklace and bangles sits with palms pressed together. Several more monks in orange are seated behind. The image is a photo of people, so a person is unsure: the seated elder shows long swept-back hair and rudraksha and gold necklace cues, but the appearance is uncertain. Counted physical people are about eight visible.
