A photograph of a seated figure on a raised dais at a large hall event. He wears an orange-red turban, a rust-orange wrap, a beaded gold-and-gem necklace, a leopard-print cloth and gold armbands, and holds a tall gold trident. Beside him a large gold Nandi bull statue with bells stands at the front. A crowd of seated devotees in white, orange and pink clothing fills the foreground and background, and a white pedestal fan sits to the right. Appearance-based cues (turban, saffron-toned clothing, ornate necklace, trident) suggest Swamiji (probable) seated on the throne.
