A photograph inside a large white tented hall at an evening convention. A man with long dark hair, wearing a flowing saffron-orange robe with a shawl draped over one arm, stands on a red carpet and smiles while turning toward the seated audience. Rows of participants in white clothes and white headbands sit cross-legged on mats on both sides of the carpet. Overhead lights, white tent drapery with blue and gold scalloped trim, and speaker boxes on poles frame the scene. Given the saffron robe, long hair and the page's note that Swamiji attended, the central figure is a probable Swamiji candidate.
