A seated figure with a tall dark swept-back hairstyle crowned with white and pink flowers and a gold crown band wears an orange-brown robe and a long multicolour garland of pink, purple and green flowers, with rudraksha-style beads and gold ornaments. The figure holds a folded white paper and reads from it while a younger man in an orange-red shawl bows forward with folded hands as the seated figure places a hand on his head. Behind them a man in white clothes stands near a golden ceremonial backdrop, and a banner shows a painted figure in red headgear beside a world map with glowing lights. Probable Swamiji (probable) is the seated figure, shown in a blessing role with a garland, crown-like headpiece and saffron-toned robe; the bowing man is a devotee.
