A man with short dark hair wearing a rudraksha mala headband, a red bindi and tilak on his forehead, and a rudraksha necklace over bare skin with an orange-saffron cloth draped on his body, speaks at a press gathering in an outdoor setting with trees behind. A cluster of television microphones with station logos is pushed toward him, held by reporters' hands. Behind him stand several men in white shirts and orange-robed monks, one bald with a red bindi, and a crowd of onlookers. The mood is that of a media interview at an open-air site.
