A photograph of a large tented hall where a seated figure in orange robes with long swept-back dark hair sits on a raised white cushioned seat at the left, playing a small instrument. Rows of seated devotees face him, many with palms pressed together in prayer; men wear white shirts and dhotis, some in orange scarves, and women wear saris. Scattered orange petals lie on the floor, and tall woven cloth banners with tassels hang from the tent ceiling. Framed portraits with photographs of smiling people line the back walls, and an ornate decorated backdrop with a circular motif is visible at the right. The seated figure in orange with long hair and a crown-like headpiece matches the page's a person cues, so this is a person in person.
