A photograph of a stage event. A figure seated on a large gold throne under a gold ornate parasol wears a white turban, a pastel multicoloured embroidered long robe with a pale shawl, and a long garland of white, purple, red and green flowers with a red flower hanging down. The figure's hand extends a sweet or food toward a man on the left who leans in with folded hands. The man wears a white kurta with a yellow shawl and glasses. Gold ornamental stools and a pot-shaped vessel sit at the front, with a flower arrangement of yellow and orange blooms at right. Several women in saris sit in the background. Swamiji (probable): the figure on the throne has long swept-back hair, a turban, a rudraksha-style garland and ornate adornments, matching the page's claim, though the appearance cues are only moderately distinctive.
