A seated man in saffron-orange robes, an orange-and-yellow turban, and a rudraksha-style bead necklace sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne decorated with yellow, red and purple marigold garlands. A large yellow fringed parasol stands above the throne. Behind him a red banner reads Dasara and a Kannada word for worship, with a large statue of a goddess adorned with red garlands and gold jewellery on the right. A water bottle and microphone sit at the left edge of the stage. The scene is a Dasara celebration stage setup. The seated figure's appearance is consistent with the page's identification of Swamiji, though this cannot be confirmed from appearance alone, so the entry is marked as a probable Swamiji on the throne with cues of saffron robes, a turban and bead necklace.
