A photograph of a padapuja ritual in a hall with a white curtain backdrop and a patterned green-and-red floor mat. A seated figure in orange robes and a long white flower garland sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne. A man in a white shirt and white dhoti bends forward to offer padapuja at the feet of the seated figure. Several devotees stand behind, including a woman in a red saree on the left, a woman in a green saree, and a man in white. Visible appearance cues on the seated figure include long hair and orange clothing with a floral garland; the page identifies Swamiji at this event, so this is a probable Swamiji depiction in an in-person role. A wooden pillar with a purple bird emblem stands at the left edge.
