A wide-angle photograph of a seated audience of many women in saffron-and-white and colourful saris, sitting on orange floor mats in a large hall with white draped ceiling fabric and tall striped decorative pillars. On a raised stage with a maroon curtain, a figure in white sits on a throne-like chair behind a small table. A projected slide reads Bhakti Spurana Program, and a Bhakti Yoga diagram stands on an easel at left. The figure's face is too distant to read, and the appearance cues are not distinctive enough to confirm the Swamiji candidate.
