A large audience sits in rows of chairs facing a raised stage in a hall with red drapes and gold-framed backdrops. On a golden throne at centre, a figure in red and orange robes with a crown sits with hands raised in a teaching gesture, flanked by gold trident, potted plants and carved elephant figures. Cameras on tripods film the stage, and a woman in white stands at the right. Seated devotees in white and pastel clothes fill the foreground, with a woman in a purple-tinted wig in the lower centre. A Swamiji (probable) figure is seated on the throne, identified by ornate saffron-red robes, a crown and a long rudraksha-style necklace.
