Photo of a stage event with a pale green backdrop bearing a row of circular portrait photos and red Kannada lettering reading ಆನಂದ... and partly visible 2008-style digits. On the right, a long-haired man in a saffron turban and saffron robe with a rudraksha mala smiles and claps; he is Swamiji (probable) by his long swept-back hair, saffron turban and rudraksha mala, with role of host on the dais. Beside him, an older man in saffron clothes and a pearl necklace raises a book with both hands toward the crowd. Seated in gilded chairs behind them are other saffron-robed sannyasis, one shaved-headed priest visible at lower left. The tent ceiling is white with a small logo at upper left.
