A seated man in a rust-orange turban, bare-chested under an orange wrap, wears layered gold beaded necklaces, gold bangles and a rudraksha-style bead band on his wrist, and holds a gilt-framed photograph of a turbaned saint out to a kneeling woman in a cream sari with a rudraksha mala and a red forehead mark. Behind them a kneeling man in a white striped shirt presses his palms together, and standing devotees in pink, blue and white clothes watch from a red-curtained stage beside a small white fan and a brass lamp. Probable Swamiji: the seated man has long swept-back hair, an orange turban and ornate gold beaded necklaces, so the in_person value is used.
