A photograph of a stage event. A bearded man in an orange-red turban and orange-red dhoti stands centre stage holding a tall silver trident in his right hand, with a garland of white and pink flowers over his shoulders and a thick rudraksha mala with a gold pendant around his neck. He wears a leopard-print shawl and gold bangles and smiles with one hand on his hip. Behind him stands a large carved rock with small statues, a golden bull figure sits at his left and a golden trident stands at the right edge, against a blue sky backdrop. In the foreground, many audience members raise their hands and phones toward the stage. Swamiji (probable) is the man with the turban, garlands and rudraksha mala, shown in a stage setting with trident and sacred symbols.
