On the left, a smiling man with long dark hair wears an orange-saffron robe, a rudraksha-style mala and a gold necklace, seated with hands folded in namaskar. On the right, an elderly bald priest wearing a saffron cloth and a beaded mala sits on a red-cushioned gold throne reading from a book. Behind them, a seated figure in a red headcloth and orange robe sits on a smaller gold seat, and a man in white stands nearby. Two gold-colored lions adorn the central step. Swamiji (probable): the man on the left wears long swept-back hair, saffron robes, rudraksha beads and a gold necklace, seated on the main throne in a coronation-style ceremony. Four to five people are visible.2012-04-27A photograph of a ceremonial stage at a Madurai Aadheenam coronation-style event. On the left, a man with long swept-back dark hair, a gold necklace and orange robes sits on an ornate gold throne with red cushions, smiling and gesturing with his hands; he matches the page's Swamiji reference with long hair, orange clothing and ornate gold adornments, so he is probable Swamiji. On the right, an elderly bald priest in an orange-brown cloth, rudraksha mala and gold necklace sits on a second gold throne holding a book. Between them, a younger man in white dhoti and shawl stands near a seated sannyasi in orange with red headwear. Behind them, large painted guardian figures with orange and gold garments and gold maces flank a teal wall with hanging lamps, and a golden lion sculpture sits at the centre. Seated figure in orange at right edge with raised hands.2012-04-27
