A photograph of a ceremonial stage hung with orange and maroon drapes. Behind a seated elder in a saffron robe, with a white tilak on his forehead and a long wooden staff across his lap, stands a golden deity murti with a crown and garland of red flowers, holding a trident. The seated elder rests on a gold throne with red cushions. Around him stand several attendants: a smiling man in saffron on the left with rudraksha beads, a bearded man in a dark vest and white dhoti, a bald man in white, a young man in orange and a shirtless young man near the right side. A saffron-robed man on the right touches the throne. A gold parasol hangs above.

The figure wears an orange-red turban, a red and pink flower garland, rudraksha and bead malas, and orange robes with yellow trim, with bangles on the wrists. Beside and behind the throne, an oil lamp and a potted green plant sit on the stage. Four saffron-robed men in orange garlands sit on a red and gold carpet to the right, while a standing man in orange and red cloth with a rudraksha mala holds a microphone and speaks. A starry blue backdrop and a golden deity murti complete the stage. Whether the seated figure is a person cannot be settled from appearance alone, so the identity remains uncertain.2015-07-19February 11 20132013-02-11February 08 20132013-02-08February 08 20132013-02-08June 05 20122012-06-05
