A seated man in an orange-red robe, a matching orange turban with a silver emblem, and multiple gold-coloured bangles and a long beaded necklace sits on an ornate silver-and-red throne with a silver trident beside him. Appearance-based identification is probable: a person, seated in the ceremonial throne as the main speaker, extending one hand while addressing a large seated audience. Several hundred devotees in saffron, white and pastel clothing sit on the floor facing him. Two large screens display a close-up of the same figure. A silver tray with small vessels rests near the throne. The hall has blue lighting and red and orange banners.
