A large hall filled with seated students on colourful mats facing a central white ornate throne with a red seat. A man with long dark hair and a beard, wearing an orange-saffron robe and holding a wooden staff, sits on the throne gesturing while speaking. A probable Swamiji candidate by appearance: long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and beard, seated in the honoured role of speaker. Attendees wear black t-shirts and sit cross-legged; a cameraman operates a crane camera at right. Behind the throne a large screen shows a deity murti with multiple arms and a crown, flanked by golden ceremonial stands with lamps and a red-draped altar.
