A group photograph on a stage with red curtains and an ornate painted backdrop. A central figure sits on a large ornate silver throne with a trident leaning beside him, wearing an orange-brown robe and an orange-red turban, with hands pressed together in anjali. Around him stand a row of young men in orange shawls held in namaste, some in dark trousers and blue or white shirts, plus an older bearded man in white at the left of the throne. A brass railing and a small brass bench are in the foreground. The image is a photo. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure in orange-brown robes, orange-red turban and hair, seated on the throne centre-stage, with a trident beside him; this is an appearance-based label only.

A seated figure in an orange-brown robe with a red-and-gold headdress sits with hands joined in front of the chest on the throne. Around the stage, about fifteen young men in orange shawls stand in two rows with palms pressed together in namaste, and one man in white shirt and dark trousers bows low at the front-left. A silver trident stands upright beside the throne, with flowers and leaves on the floor. Brass railings line the stage edges. A candidate figure appears on the throne in an orange-brown robe with distinctive headdress, but the face is too small to judge appearance. Students seem to honour a teacher with a welcoming ceremony.2017-10-03 +1 copiesOctober 03 20172017-10-03 +1 copiesOctober 03 20172017-10-03 +1 copies
