A seated man in a green turban and green draped robe sits eyes-closed on an ornate gold-and-red throne, wearing a long gold bead necklace and a red cord with a pendant. Before him, shaved-headed priests in white dhotis with gold borders perform a ritual, one holding a lit lamp near offerings on a gold tray. Another devotee in a red shawl sits with his back to the camera. A gold-trimmed yellow and green banner hangs at left and a floral arrangement sits on a stand. Behind is a painted temple backdrop with deity figures. Swamiji (probable): the seated man wears a green turban, long gold bead necklace and a red cord, and the robes and dais are consistent with the page's description of a satsang discourse.
