A large hall filled with seated devotees, many in white, saffron and orange clothing. In the centre a man with long swept-back hair and a dark-red turban, wearing an orange shawl, saffron robe and a long gold-coloured mala, sits on an ornate silver throne with a red cushion, holding a small object in one hand.
