A man with long dark hair, eyes closed and a red bindi, stands in front of a brown leather throne edged with gold, wearing a rust-orange dhoti and shawl, a brown beaded rudraksha mala and an ornate gold pendant necklace. He holds a golden trident (trishul) to his left and a small microphone is at his face. Hands from a crowd reach toward him from the lower foreground, and many seated devotees in orange and red clothing fill the tented hall behind him. The scene is a large gathering with a ceremonial stage and a sound console on the right.
