A bearded man in saffron-orange robes sits on an ornate gold throne with red cushions, wearing a red turban with a crescent moon emblem, a rudraksha mala and layered gold necklaces, and a pink-and-white flower garland. Behind him is a wall of yellow, orange, purple and green marigold and flower garlands. Attendants in white sit at the lower left and bottom edge, and a silver ceremonial staff stands at the left. Swamiji (probable): the man on the throne has long swept-back hair visible behind him, a crown-like turban, saffron clothing, rudraksha and ceremonial gold necklaces, consistent with the page's reference to Paramahamsa Nithyananda at a Pada Puja event.
