A photograph of a stage at an indoor hall with blue draped curtains and gold-and-orange festoons above. A seated figure in orange robes with a long orange-beaded mala and a garland sits on a flower-decorated golden throne under a striped canopy, appearing to be a probable Swamiji figure with long hair and orange ornate clothing. Around him sit several people in white and orange robes, some in white dhotis and others in orange saris, seated on the stage floor. To the left, a golden bull statue (nandi) stands beside a flower-garlanded seat holding a small orange-robed figure portrait. Seated devotees in white fill the lower foreground facing the stage, and a camera on a tripod stands at the right edge.
