A large hall crowded with seated devotees, many in white and colourful saris and kurtas, raising hands. In the centre on a golden ornate throne with lion-head armrests sits a bearded man in saffron-orange robes with a sash and a long trident staff beside him, appearing to be Swamiji (probable), with long swept-back hair and saffron clothing. Orange and red paper lanterns hang from the ceiling, white drapes line the walls, and a video camera on a tripod films the gathering. Ceremonial attendants in white stand near the throne.
