A man with long, swept-back dark hair sits cross-legged on an ornate silver-carved throne draped with a leopard-print cushion, wearing a rust-red dhoti and shawl with gold armlets and smiling. Many devotees wear white, red and saffron clothing, and several hold up mobile phones to photograph him. A woman in an orange robe sits near the front, and a woman in a white shirt with a red shawl sits in the lower right foreground. A red patterned mat and a printed bag lie on the blue tarp. The people in the foreground are seated in a relaxed satsang-style setting.
