A photograph inside a tent-like hall at a KAILASA event. A man with long dark hair, orange sannyasi clothing and a saffron shawl sits smiling on an ornate gold throne with a red velvet back, a microphone on a stand before him. Two men in orange robes stand at left, one holding papers and one bearded with long hair. A woman in white salwar kameez with glasses leans forward, and hands reach up to hand books to the seated figure. Stacks of books rest on a table at right beside a bottle of water. A probable Swamiji candidate appears seated on the throne, identified by appearance cues including long swept-back hair, orange robes and a saffron shawl.
