A man in saffron-orange robes and a matching orange turban sits on an ornate silver throne with red velvet upholstery at the front of a large hall. He wears a long beaded mala and a gold pendant, holds his hands together in his lap, and has a silver trident staff beside him. A small table with a silver tray and objects sits before him. Seated audience members in colourful saris, kurtas and white clothing fill the rows in front of him, and a large screen behind him shows another image. Paper lanterns and fabric decorations hang from the ceiling.
