A seated figure in saffron-orange robes and a matching orange turban sits on an ornate silver-and-red throne, holding a tall silver staff upright in one hand and resting the other on a silver vessel on a low table. He has a long beard, long dark hair swept back under the turban, a crescent ornament on the turban, and a headset microphone. Around the throne, a large seated audience in white, pink, and saffron clothing fills the hall, many with hands pressed together in prayer. A large screen behind shows a close-up of a bearded figure in red. Banners hang on the walls. Probable Swamiji appears in person, seated on the throne, with distinctive saffron robes, a crescent turban ornament, long hair and ceremonial silver staff as cues.
