Wide photo of a large tented hall with a crowd of seated devotees facing a central raised seat. A bare-chested man with long dark hair, a red-orange turban and a rudraksha-style beaded necklace sits cross-legged on a golden lion-shaped throne with a raised hand in blessing; he is a person appearance-based candidate. Behind him stands a tall ornate golden staff with a trident-like top, and a video camera on a tripod. Colourful hanging tassel decorations and a white ceiling fill the upper space, and a screen shows a crowd. Many attendees wear white, saffron and red clothing; several sit on red chairs. Deity murti and satsang setting.
