A photo of a ceremonial indoor gathering on a raised platform with a golden ornate throne under a tiered golden canopy. Seated centrally on the throne is a man in a rust-orange and gold-bordered robe with a rust-orange turban, hands pressed together in greeting. To his left on white cushioned sofas sit three older men: one with a long white beard, grey hair and an orange robe with a garland; another bearded man in orange; and a white-bearded man in saffron robes and a flower garland. To the right, two men in casual shirts and trousers and a man in white kurta sit on white sofas. Standing at far right is a bald man in an orange-and-gold robe holding a microphone and a paper. Behind the throne hangs a painted backdrop of a deity figure in red with a trident and temple spires in pink mist, with a gilded pillar on the right.
