A large hall viewed from behind a rows of seated devotees on red floor cushions, facing a stage. Most attendees wear white ritual clothing, with some in orange, saffron and multicoloured saris and kurtas; a woman in an orange sari and maroon blouse sits in the foreground with a long braid. A man in a green striped shirt sits at the front left. On the stage, a central golden throne-like seat is flanked by ornate gold lion-and-figure carvings, and a large backdrop banner shows a painted saint figure and deity imagery. Two cameramen stand near tripods at the front. Screens on both sides show crowd footage, and a purple bird logo appears at the top left. The person on the central seat is too small and distant to reliably identify.

Two large screens on either side show a figure in orange and red robes with a red turban and garlands, consistent with a depiction of Swamiji (probable) on the screens. Several people in the foreground wear white, and a few wear orange or saffron. A camera on a tripod is visible near the stage.

Many attendees wear white kurtas and dhotis, others wear orange, saffron and colourful clothes, and sit on red mats over a reflective tiled floor. A cameraman stands at left near a tripod. Red curtains line the back wall. The figure on the throne shows rudraksha-style beads and a headdress, but the appearance is uncertain, so identification is unsure.2016-08-28August 09 20152015-08-09August 09 20152015-08-09
