A seated man with long dark hair, a white forehead band, a rudraksha-style red shawl and a gold pendant sits on an ornate carved silver chair, smiling as he dips his fingers into a silver tray of food. He holds a small microphone in one hand. A woman in a peach kurta with glasses and a red bindi stands with her palms pressed together beside a young girl in a green and purple outfit. Behind them an older man in white bends forward, and a standing man in white holds a tray with a glass and a gold-coloured pendant. Nearby, a figure in a red shawl sits with long dark hair facing away, and people in orange garments appear in the background. Probable Swamiji is the seated man with long hair and a red shawl, identified by his appearance cues and seated role; the others are devotees. A red carpet and white tent setting surround the scene.
