A man in rust-orange and brown robes sits atop a large golden bull statue on a stage, raising one hand. He wears a rust-orange turban, a long dark braid, a heavy gold and beaded necklace, and a gold-tipped staff rises at the right edge. Seated and standing devotees fill the white-walled hall in the foreground, many in white and pastel clothing, some wearing orange or saffron sashes. Hanging orange and red decorative banners and a red lantern hang above, and a screen shows at the left. The presenter appears to be Swamiji (probable), identified by the long hair, saffron-toned clothing, rudraksha-style beaded necklace and ceremonial gold ornaments, seated in a discourse setting with a bull statue.
