A photograph of a ceremonial stage event. A man seated on an ornate silver and jeweled throne with carved lion-like arms is the central figure, wearing a gold crown, a long rudraksha-style mala of red and gold beads, a gold necklace and a maroon-orange shawl; he raises one hand in a blessing gesture. The throne sits within a large arch decorated with flower garlands in red, white, yellow, green and purple stripes, with dark feather-like decorations at its top corners. Around the stage, many seated devotees in white traditional clothes face the throne, some with long hair and red-trimmed shawls, and a flame burns in the foreground near a kneeling figure in brown. A glowing golden bokeh backdrop fills the upper scene. Describing a person depiction is an appearance-based probable identification, based on the saffron-orange robe, crown, ornate necklaces and rudraksha beads.
