A seated man in orange-saffron robes with long swept-back hair, a red-orange shawl, rudraksha-style beads and a gold necklace speaks into a handheld microphone on a raised wooden platform. A tall brass trident stands beside him, with a brass kalasha-style vessel and a keyboard in front. Seated devotees in white clothes with orange shawls fill the hall, some with eyes closed and some holding small items. A large screen above shows a close-up of the same speaker with a microphone. Behind him are a red-and-white striped cloth, a doorway and a small sign. The setting resembles a satsang discourse. Swamiji (probable): the speaker presents as the Swamiji candidate, based on long hair, saffron robes, rudraksha beads and gold necklace.
