A man in a flowing saffron-orange robe walks barefoot down a colourful striped rug runner through a seated audience at a yoga hall. Seated devotees in black, white and grey clothing sit on mats on both sides, some shirtless. Behind the walker is a stage with a large deity murti with a multi-hooded cobra canopy, backdropped by a blue-and-pink projected cosmic image. Gold trident-tipped staffs line the red stage platform, and a camera on a tripod stands at right. The walker's appearance matches a person candidate by long swept-back hair, saffron robe and ornate presentation, but identity is uncertain.
