A seated figure on a brown leather throne with gold lion-head armrests wears a marigold garland, rudraksha-style beads and a red-brown robe, with dark long hair, and reaches toward a leopard-print cylindrical box on a low gold stand. A bald man in orange robes and an orange shawl stands holding a microphone, and a white-haired woman in white with an orange shawl leans in from the lower right to handle the box. Beside them sit beaded mala strands on a white tray. Behind, a large hall is filled with seated devotees in orange, white and red clothes, and a silver trident stands at left. The seated figure matches the appearance cues for the page's subject, so this is a probable identification.
