A photograph taken from behind a low partition in a hall facing a raised stage. On the stage, a seated figure in orange and red sits on an ornate golden throne flanked by two large gold panels, with a trident and a small ceremonial stand beside him. Several devotees in the foreground sit cross-legged on the floor facing the stage: a bald man in an orange cloth with a white sacred thread and beaded necklace, a man in white dhoti with orange shawl, a woman in white with a rudraksha-style necklace, and women in white and orange saris. Some hold up phones to record. Red curtains and standing lights frame the stage.
