A long-haired man in an orange-red garment and rudraksha beads stands at left beside a golden throne, his right hand raised to the forehead of a short-haired man in white and red, who stands before him. A woman in white with gold necklaces and rudraksha beads stands behind them, and brass oil lamps stand on the left. Devotees in white and pink saris and white shirts with red scarves stand in the background against a red tent. The person with long hair, orange-red clothing and rudraksha beads is a probable Swamiji, based on visible long hair, saffron-red clothing and rudraksha beads; he is blessing the man with his hand. Brass oil lamps and a gilded throne are visible at left.
