A large tented hall hung with colourful tassel-and-lamp decorations sits a seated man on a tiger-skin-draped throne with a golden lion-like carved armrest. He wears an orange-red turban, a saffron-red garment and multiple beaded malas, and holds a tall trident-like staff. Swamiji (probable): long dark hair, saffron clothing, rudraksha malas and a ceremonial turban fit the cues. Hundreds of seated devotees in white, orange and multicolour saris and kurtas face him, with two large screens on the side walls. A white fan stands in front of the throne. Several devotees wear orange sashes.
