A photograph of a large ceremonial gathering in a white tented hall. At centre, a man seated on an ornate golden throne with lion-head armrests and a brown cushioned seat wears a rust-red saffron-toned dhoti-style garment, multiple gold necklaces, a green and gold mala, and a red bindi; he smiles and holds a silver staff. Beside him, a tall golden trident stands upright. Around them, many people in white kurtas and rust-red shawls stand and sit, some raising phones to take pictures, some with hands clasped. A woman in white and rust shawl and a blonde woman in white also appear in the crowd. A lit brass oil lamp and orange cloth lie at the lower left.
