A photograph of a seated figure in saffron-orange robes and matching orange turban performing a puja at a decorated shivalinga. The man holds a brass plate with a lit flame in his right hand and a small brass bell in his left hand, with fruit and offerings on a tray at his feet. The shivalinga is wrapped in garlands of yellow, white, red and pink flowers, set on a copper yoni-peetha base. Behind it stand a brass lamp stand with flower garlands, a silver-draped backdrop and a deity image garlanded in yellow flowers. A pale-clothed devotee's hand is visible at the lower right edge. Swamiji (probable): the saffron robes, orange turban and ceremonial performance are visible cues, so the figure is identified as a probable candidate.
