A photograph of a seated figure on an ornate gold-and-red throne with a carved golden back, wearing an orange robe and a long rudraksha mala, with long swept-back dark hair. Before him on a wooden table sit a tray of flowers and several silver plates of offerings. Several women in orange and red saris with orange shawls kneel or sit with hands folded in namaskar, facing the throne. A bald monk in orange sits in the foreground with his back to the camera, and a woman in white with a braided plait sits at the lower right. A ceiling fan, window and dark curtains are visible in the hall. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure has long swept-back hair, a rudraksha mala and orange robes on a gold throne, and is the central honoured figure, so this is a presence claim based on those cues.
