A photograph of a seated figure on a golden throne in front of a large heart-shaped backdrop covered with flower garlands in yellow, orange, red and purple, and decorative mirrored panels. The seated figure wears a gold crown, a long purple flower garland, a gold necklace and a red-orange shawl, and holds a trident-like staff beside the throne; a golden lion stands at each side of the throne with brass oil lamps nearby. Around a dozen devotees sit on the floor in white dhotis and sarees, a woman in a white and gold saree with flowers in her hair, a girl in a pink dress, and an older man in orange and white, facing the throne with brass plates of offerings in front. Garlanded pillars with flower decorations frame the hall. The seated figure is an appearance-based probable Swamiji (crown, shawl and garland cues), so swamiji is in_person; the people count is approximate and includes all visible people in the hall.
