Outdoor ashram scene on a dirt path beside a red-walled building with lattice windows. A man with long swept-back dark hair and a saffron-orange shawl over a flowing orange robe walks at the front, holding a wooden walking stick and a small book, appearing to be a person by his long hair and saffron clothing. Beside him an older man in white kurta and a saffron shawl carries a small camera, and several men and a woman in orange robes and white dhotis follow along a concrete path past a metal railing.

A photograph of an outdoor temple entrance with orange-painted walls and white-and-red striped steps. In the foreground, a man in a flowing orange robe with long swept-back hair, a gold headband and a rudraksha-style necklace raises one hand in a blessing gesture; the appearance cues are distinctive, so he is a person candidate. Beside him stands a bald man in white dhoti and shawl with red borders, holding a small orange item. Behind them, several people in white dhotis, orange and saffron robes, and saris stand on the steps and in the doorway. A red board with a framed portrait and a sign reading the event name stands to the right, next to a deity murti garlanded with yellow flowers. Other devotees in green, lavender, and light blue clothing stand with hands pressed together nearby.

In the centre, a long-haired man in a saffron-orange wrap with a red bindi stands still while others around him move.

On the left, a bald older man in white kurta stands near a man in white bending low at the feet of the figures on the steps. A video camera on a tripod is operated by a man in orange, and a noticeboard with framed photos hangs on the wall. Several people in white and orange are visible in the crowd.

Outdoor covered pavilion with a corrugated metal roof and white metal doors. A man with long swept-back dark hair and a bare-chested orange-saffron garment stands on a striped mat, holding a sheet of white paper and gesturing with his hand, a tilak on his forehead. Two men in white dhotis and yellow shawls stand beside him, one with a shaved head and the other holding papers, while another saffron-clad figure moves in the background. Orange curtains and a portable white board sit at the right.
