A photograph inside a large hall during a seated programme. A long-haired figure in red-orange and a leopard-print garment sits on an ornate gold and brown throne with a trident leaning beside it, holding a small book or paper and a pen-like object. Around the throne, a dense crowd of seated and standing devotees, many women with flowers in their hair, wears red-orange shawls and saffron-coloured garments. A bald man in orange robes and a rudraksha mala stands near the throne, holding a small object. A screen above shows a colourful image. The phrase 'a person' applies to the figure on the throne, whose long hair, rudraksha-style adornments and ornate gold necklace match the cues for the candidate, while the standing orange-robed man is a devotee or sannyasi.
