A ceremonial padapuja scene in front of an ornate gold throne with a carved cobra-hood backrest and a red cushion. A bearded man in saffron/orange robes with a gold necklace, long hair, and armbands sits on the throne, holding a red fruit and reaching toward a white-haired man in a white dhoti who kneels and bows with his head touching the throne's foot area. Behind them, a shirtless man with a rudraksha mala and a man in white ritual cloth attend; a standing man in a white and yellow-bordered dhoti and another in a white shirt observe. A red curtain, golden pillar carvings, and a large painted deity image of a seated figure fill the background, and a woman in purple sits at the right edge. Swamiji is probable in the seated throne figure, whose saffron robes, gold necklace, and long hair match his presentation; the kneeling devotee is a devotee.
