A seated bearded man in an orange-saffron robe, with long dark hair under a rust-red turban with a crescent emblem, sits on an ornate silver-and-red throne. He wears a heavy rudraksha mala and a ceremonial gold pendant, and holds his hands together in his lap. A silver trident stands to the left and a small table with brass and white ritual items sits in front of him. A large crowd of mostly seated devotees in saffron, white and bright saris fills the hall, and a screen behind shows a close-up of the same man. Colourful hanging lanterns decorate the ceiling. Appearance-based label: Swamiji (probable), seated on the throne with qualifying cues of long hair, saffron robe, rudraksha mala and ornate gold pendant.
