A photograph of a seated man on a silver throne beside a large fire pit with bright flames at the left edge. He has a vertical tilak on his forehead, a long swept-back dark hair, rudraksha mala necklaces and bead bracelets, and wears a leopard-print cloth over a red-brown lower garment. His right hand rests on the armrest and he is smiling. Behind him are dark deity murti figures draped with red cloth, marigold and multicoloured flower garlands, and a row of floral garland decorations. A silver mount of a bull sits at the base of the throne. Swamiji (probable): the long hair, rudraksha malas and ornate ceremonial dress are the qualifying cues for the seated figure, who is presiding over a homa at the fire pit.
