Stage photograph at a Shuddhadvaitam event: a figure in saffron and orange robes with an orange turban sits on an ornate gold throne with red cushions, holding a microphone and gesturing as he speaks. Behind the throne hangs a large painted deity murti with multiple raised arms, under a dark red curtain. Potted plants flank the stage and a row of gold-coloured decorative items lines the front edge. To the left, a white-clad elderly man in an orange shawl sits in an orange armchair, with a woman in a red and green sari with orange shawl and other seated men beside her. Swamiji (probable): the speaker has an orange turban, saffron robes and a microphone on a throne, and is the apparent event leader, so the label is based on appearance cues.
