Photograph of a seated group of men in white dhotis and orange-saffron shawls at a stage event in front of red drapes and gilded thrones. In the centre a man with a black microphone speaks and smiles; he wears a rudraksha mala, a thin silver chain and a white-and-gold cloth. Beside him a smiling man in an orange shawl and beaded mala sits. At right an older man with white forehead markings, layered gold chains and rudraksha beads sits with hands clasped. Others sit at the left edge, one with white markings and an orange shawl. Gilded peetha-style chairs stand behind them.
