A large hall with a stage at the back draped in red curtains and framed by two ornate gold panels. A figure in saffron-orange clothing with dark hair sits on a white and red throne beneath a gold canopy decorated with red and green flower garlands. Rows of seated people fill the foreground, mostly women in white and cream saris, with some in orange, red and yellow garments. Several video cameras on tripods film the stage from the side, and gold-topped railings line the front of the platform. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure wears saffron-orange garments and has long dark hair, and is positioned on the throne as the central speaker.

July 30 20172017-07-30 +1 copiesA photograph taken from behind a large seated audience in a hall with dark red drapery and gold-panelled walls. On a raised stage, a figure in orange and red robes sits on a white throne-like chair decorated with red and orange garlands, flanked by ornate gold screens. Audience members in white, cream and orange clothing sit on the floor facing the stage; a few wear white head scarves. A large screen to the left shows a figure in red and white garments. Several video cameras on tripods are visible near the stage, and a water bottle sits on the floor at right. The stage figure appears to be a person, identified by the saffron robes, the throne setting and the garlanded seat, and is an appearance-based label only. The seated audience numbers in the dozens, roughly 21-100 people.2017-07-30July 08 20172017-07-08August 13 20172017-08-13 +1 copiesJuly 08 20172017-07-08A photograph of a seated audience in a hall facing a raised stage.

On an ornate white silver throne-like seat under a canopy, a man in orange robes and an orange turban sits behind a lectern with a microphone, seemingly addressing the assembly. Rows of seated devotees fill the foreground, many in orange, saffron and white clothes, with some women wearing green and tan saris. A video camera on a tripod stands at left, and a second camera is at right. The man on the throne matches the page's a person description, but his face is too small to confirm, so the identification is only probable on appearance cues: orange robe, orange turban and a throne-like seat. Roughly 60 people are visible from behind.2017-11-21A photograph taken from behind a seated audience in a hall with red drapes.
