A bearded man in a rust-brown robe sits on an ornate silver and red-velvet throne on a stage, smiling with eyes closed. He wears a pink and white flower garland, a brown rudraksha mala, a large gold pendant necklace, gold bangles and a white tilak with a red bindi. A microphone stands before him and a small book rests on a lectern at left. Behind him are two deity murtis, one wearing a red turban and heavy gold jewellery and another with a crown, with a brass lamp stand and green foliage at the sides. A man in the central seated position with distinctive long hair and rudraksha malas but no crown or saffron-ornate cues; appearance is insufficient for identification. a person cues not sufficiently distinctive, so role is given as seated speaker.
