Indoor hall with white tiled ceiling and fluorescent lights, maroon curtains, and a large framed deity image on the right wall. A bare-chested man with long swept-back hair and a full beard, wearing an orange-saffron dhoti, a white-and-gold flower garland, and gold bangles, walks across the floor toward the left. Behind him a cameraman films from a tripod. On the right, rows of seated people in white and yellow clothes sit on mats with hands pressed together in prayer. Floor mats hold orange cloths and bags, and chairs are stacked at the left. Two screens show a bearded figure in saffron. Probable Swamiji, the man walking, identified by long swept-back hair, saffron dhoti and garland.
