A photograph of a group walking across a paved forecourt toward a white temple building with a domed roof and a Gujarati signboard above the entrance. In the foreground on the left, a man in white kurta with a rudraksha mala walks beside an older man in white with spectacles and a mala. A man in a grey striped shirt and dark trousers walks among them. Several sannyasis in saffron-orange robes walk together; one in the centre-right holds a small bundle or papers. The temple has marble steps with metal handrails, and a pink spire and yellow flag are visible behind on the left under a partly cloudy sky. No identifiable a person candidate is clearly visible, as the saffron-clad figures are not distinguishable enough to confirm.
