A photograph of a stage in a hall with a navy blue drape backdrop and overhead stage lights. On a large gold-ornate throne at centre sits a long-haired figure in saffron-orange clothing with a ceremonial orange shawl and beaded necklaces, appearing to address the gathering; the appearance matches cues for Swamiji (probable), seated in a gold throne. Seated on the stage floor in front are devotees in white and cream traditional dress, a bald priest in white dhoti, and several women in saris and salwar. To the left a gold throne holds a deity murti in orange and red garments with a garland. Two men in white dhoti sit at microphones near the front-left. Several other people sit in the foreground at the bottom edge.
