A seated figure on an ornate golden throne in front of deep maroon velvet drapes, wearing an orange-saffron dhoti and a red-orange floral garland, with a smile and one hand raised. Appearance-based cues consistent with a long-haired swami in saffron clothing make this a probable Swamiji (probable) candidate seated in a satsang-style gathering. Around the throne, about fourteen devotees in white and off-white dhotis and saris, with red and orange shawls and rudraksha malas, stand, sit or kneel on red cushions. One devotee in front holds a small book, and a bald devotee sits at the lower right. Dark red ceremonial mats cover the stage floor.2013-05-28May 28 20132013-05-28May 28 20132013-05-28May 28 20132013-05-28May 28 20132013-05-28 +1 copiesMay 28 20132013-05-28 +1 copiesMay 28 20132013-05-28A photograph of a seated man in saffron-orange robes with a red-and-saffron shawl and a garland, sitting on an ornate gold throne with a red cushioned base on a raised platform in front of deep red velvet drapes.

A few women in saris and men in white dhotis stand to the left and right, with red mats laid on the floor in front. The scene is set on a polished white floor with a potted plant at the left edge.
