A man with long dark hair sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with eyes closed, hands in a meditation mudra on his lap. He wears an orange saffron wrap, a long gold bead necklace and a red tilak on his forehead. Behind him a gold-framed throne back displays a carved relief, and a trident (trishul) stands upright beside him wrapped with white garlands. The seat is heaped with yellow and purple flower garlands, and gold ceremonial staffs frame the stage. Blue draped curtains form the background. A figure of a deity sits partly visible at left, and a partially visible person's head appears at lower left. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, orange saffron wrap, gold bead necklace, seated on a throne as the central speaker.
