A photograph of a seated program in a large hall with an audience of many people. In the centre, a man with long black hair and a red-and-orange robe sits on an ornate golden throne with lion-head armrests, wearing a beaded rudraksha-style mala, a large ceremonial gold necklace and a leopard-print waist panel. Viewed from behind in the foreground is a person in a white top and orange shawl holding a silver trident. Many seated devotees in orange and white clothing watch, and a microphone is visible at the speaker's face. The figure matches the swami cues of long swept hair, saffron-toned robes, rudraksha beads and ceremonial gold, so the identity is probable.
