A photograph of a formal ceremony on a decorated stage with gold-carved thrones and red velvet cushions. A man on the left in saffron-orange robes and a crown sits with hands joined in greeting, wearing white and red flower garlands and a rudraksha mala. Beside him a seated figure in orange wears a red head covering. On the right an elderly figure in saffron-orange with a tall gold crown and a red-and-white garland sits on a throne, with a microphone stand before him. Gold lion figures flank the thrones. Behind them, large painted guardian figures with flaming crowns and raised weapons, and hanging brass lamps, frame the stage. Red and gold carpets cover the platform.
