A photograph taken through a doorway into a small concrete storeroom. A man stands in the open doorway wearing a long orange-saffron robe over a matching orange top, with long dark hair swept back and a rudraksha-style garland at his neck; he appears to be smiling. On the left wall hangs a calendar with a portrait, and cartons and stacks of CDs and DVD cases fill the floor and shelves on the right. A partially visible person in the foreground on the left edge is turned away from the camera.

A covered storage and preparation hall with a corrugated metal roof and concrete floor. Orange cloth hangs from metal shelving on the left, and an orange-draped chair with a gold-trimmed footstool stands near the left wall. In the centre, a man in an orange robe walks forward while several people in orange and white clothing stand nearby. A few other people in white shirts and dhotis are visible further back. On the right, colourful ceremonial fabrics, orange cloths, a round wooden frame and a tall ceremonial staff are arranged along a shelf and wall. Rolled colourful mats lie on the floor at the lower left.
