A large crowd sits on the floor of a tented hall, facing away from the camera toward a raised gold-carved throne at right. In the foreground, a person with long dark hair and bare shoulders wears a rust-red wrap and holds a gold trident aloft in one hand, standing beside the empty ornate gold chair. Many seated devotees in white and mixed colours fill the space, some with hands raised. A microphone stand and a small red-capped bottle sit near the throne. Red and white draping lines the background. The standing figure's appearance is consistent with the a person description in the archive but is uncertain, so the candidate is marked unsure.

The figure wears a rust-red wrap and multiple rudraksha bracelets. A large crowd of devotees fills the hall, many smiling and some raising hands. In the foreground, a silver trident stands beside a kalasha-like silver vessel and water bottles on a low table. Appearance-based a person cues (long dark swept hair, saffron-red wrap, rudraksha malas, seated on a throne) are present, though the figure is from behind so identity remains uncertain.2016-05-12May 13 20162016-05-13A seated figure with very long, dark, loose hair faces away from the camera on a golden throne flanked by carved gold lion heads, wearing an orange top and a leopard-print wrap.

A silver trident stands to the left. Dense audience seated in rows, many with hands pressed in prayer and wearing orange or red shawls and lanyards, looks toward the throne.
