A seated figure in a gilded brown throne with carved golden lion armrests, wearing a black turban, orange-red robes, a long rudraksha mala and a gold pendant, is extending a hand over a large golden bowl. Two men in white dhotis with gold borders and rudraksha malas kneel beside the throne, one holding a small dish, while a man in a pink shirt and a man in a white shirt assist. Devotees in orange and a woman in a pink top stand behind a crowd, and a cameraman films at right. Probable Swamiji cues: long swept-back hair under a black turban, orange-red robes, rudraksha malas and gold necklace while seated on a throne. The scene appears to be an ornate ritual setting with a golden vessel and a crowd of onlookers.
