A photograph at an outdoor tented event under a pink-white canopy. A smiling man with long dark hair, wearing a white dhoti and shawl with gold trim, a gold chain and a beaded mala, sits on a gold ornate throne with a carved lion-head armrest and a red cushion, decorated with garlands of red, yellow, green, purple and white flowers. A woman in a yellow blouse and white sari applies a mark to his forehead while holding a small child in a yellow outfit. Behind them stands a man in an orange robe holding a clipboard and wearing a beaded mala; a bearded man in orange with a mala sits at left. A tray of offerings is visible behind the throne. The man on the throne has distinctive long hair, gold ornaments and a white-and-gold ceremonial dress, so he is a probable Swamiji seated in a ceremonial role.
