A photograph of a large stage event in a dark hall. A central figure sits on an ornate gilded throne with a golden canopy overhead, wearing a white turban, a pale pink and cream robe, and a white garland with a red-and-gold necklace. Devotees crowd the stage edges and foreground, many dressed in white with yellow sashes and some in bright saffron, pink and red saris; several raise hands in greeting. Vases of flowers sit beside the throne, and a camera on a tripod stands at the front. A figure on the throne is a candidate for a person, with a turban, garland and ornate clothing, though the appearance is not fully certain.
