Two long-haired sannyasis walk barefoot away from the camera down a red carpet in a hall with a ceiling of square tiles and recessed lights. The figure on the left wears a bright orange robe and carries a wooden staff, while the figure on the right wears rust-brown dhoti-style cloth and holds a dark twisted staff, their long dreadlocked hair hanging down their backs. Seated devotees in white and orange line both sides of the carpet behind gold rope posts, and a woman in white with a red bindi and rudraksha mala sits at the left edge.
