A man stands beside a large banyan tree trunk at night, bowing his head with both hands raised to his forehead in a reverent gesture. He wears a red-orange turban with a gold ornament, saffron-red robes, a heavy orange-gold necklace, and a dense garland of red and yellow flowers draped across his body and tied at the trunk. Gold bangles adorn his arms and a white marking is on his forehead. Guard-like poles and a lit area appear in the background.
