Rear view of a seated congregation in a hall facing a raised stage with an empty golden throne-style chair, flanked by a large golden elephant figure and colourful hanging tassel decorations. Several saffron-robed monks sit cross-legged on the left and centre of the red floor mat, while rows of men in white shirts and white trousers sit on chairs and mats in the foreground. A video screen on the left shows a floral image, and video cameras on tripods stand near the stage. A sign on the left reads a silence notice about children and mobile phones.

On the stage, a figure seated on an ornate golden throne with lion-carved armrests and a golden canopy is flanked by robed sannyasis in saffron and orange cloth and women in white and orange sarees. Several devotees in the foreground wear orange turbans and rudraksha malas. Video cameras on tripods film the stage, and golden poles line the foreground. The seated throne figure appears to be Swamiji (probable), identifiable by his central position on the golden peetha with a crown-like headdress and ornate clothing, though the image resolution is limited. About 60 people are visible.2017-08-26Photo taken from behind a seated audience in a hall with red draped curtains and gold-framed stage.
