A seated man in an orange sleeveless robe and a long rudraksha mala sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne with long swept-back hair, eyes closed, hands resting in his lap. Swamiji (probable): the long hair, orange robe and rudraksha mala are the distinguishing cues, and he is the central figure on the throne. Before the throne, a bald man in white clothes with a lanyard sits on a blue plastic chair, holding a small offering, while a woman in a patterned top with hands folded and an older bald man in white and glasses join in. In the foreground, offering plates hold flowers and red petals, and a blonde woman and other heads are visible. Behind is a red-and-white striped wall with curtains and a microphone on a stand.
