A photograph of a devotional gathering in front of an ornate gold-and-red throne decorated with marigold and rose garlands. A seated figure with long dark hair wears a saffron-orange garment and a white flower garland, smiling as he receives a saffron shawl being draped over his shoulders. A young man in a white t-shirt and white trousers unfolds the orange cloth while a woman in a white sari with a lanyard and a woman in a pink salwar kameez look on with hands joined. A trident stands behind the throne, and a brass vessel with flower petals sits at the base. Two people in saffron robes stand at the left edge.

The central figure wears an orange-saffron garment, a pink and white flower garland, and a red tilak on the forehead, and holds a silver trident; the presentation is consistent with a person by long swept-back hair and saffron clothing, placed as the seated teacher. A younger woman in white sari kneels before him with her head bowed, and a man in orange with a gold necklace stands at left beside a gold trident and kalasha-like ornament. Several women with dark hair are seen from behind in the foreground, one with a yellow flower in her hair. Setting is a decorated tent with a white draped ceiling, consistent with a darshan or devotee reception.2009-07-07July 07 20092009-07-07July 07 20092009-07-07July 07 20092009-07-07A photograph of a seated figure on an ornate gold throne-like seat decorated with floral garlands in red, white and yellow.
