A festive indoor hall with hanging decorative lamps and tassels overhead, large screens showing a bearded robed figure, and a crowd in traditional clothes. A man with long swept-back hair, wearing a saffron-orange garment over a leopard-print cloth, a bead necklace and a crown-like headdress, sits smiling on an ornate gold-and-brown throne with golden lion-head armrests, appearing to be Swamiji (probable) and receiving a printed book. Kneeling before him, a bearded man in a white shirt offers a book, while women in saris and a woman in a white blouse hold brass trays with oil lamps and lit offerings. A tall man in white dhoti with gold border and rudraksha mala stands behind the throne, and a woman in a gold sari holds a decorated tray at left.
