A bearded man in a rust-brown turban and matching brown robes sits on an ornate silver-and-red throne on a stage. He wears a long pink and white flower garland, layered gold necklaces, a dark beaded mala, and gold armlets, and smiles toward the side. A microphone stands in front of him. Behind him is a golden deity murti with a crown and a golden shrine arch, with red curtains, potted plants, brass lamps, and a kalasha-style vase nearby. Swamiji (probable): the man wears a turban and distinctive gold necklaces and mala on a throne, consistent with the page's reference to Swamiji attending the event.
