A seated figure in an orange-saffron robe with a saffron head wrap sits on a white throne-like chair on a blue-carpeted stage, with garlands of white and orange flowers around the neck and a red floral garland across the lap. Two men in white shirts and dhotis lean in to hand over a small book or package, while a man in a grey shirt and trousers assists from the left and an older man in white dhoti stands at right wearing a name badge. A man at far left in white kurta holds a microphone. Behind is a large banner portrait of a smiling man in orange head wrap with hands joined, and potted plants and flower arrangements decorate the stage. The seated figure's appearance is not enough to confirm identity, so this is described by role only.2004-01-042003 -Glimpses From Various ProgramsA stage event with a blue backdrop and white carved arch, decorated with orange marigold garlands.

Standing to the right are white-clad devotees and more orange-robed monks on a red carpet, with a camera operator at the left edge.
