A photograph of a ceremonial event in a decorated hall. A man seated on a golden throne with a leopard-print cushion wears a saffron-orange robe and a pink and white flower garland, smiling while holding a red-covered book on a golden tray. Behind the throne a large heart-shaped backdrop of yellow flowers and ornate patterned trim frames him. To the right, a bare-chested man with long dreadlocks and white dhoti pulled from a tray a red-covered book and offers it. In the lower foreground, a man in tan clothing bows deeply with his head near the floor, and a woman in a red and gold sari kneels nearby. Standing attendants in white, gold and teal clothing surround the platform, and a tall golden ritual staff stands at left. Seated and standing devotees fill the background.
