A seated man in a rust-red sleeveless robe and red dhoti with a leopard-print cloth at the waist sits behind a low ritual table during a night event. He wears a tall black turban with a crescent ornament, a long rudraksha mala, a gold necklace, and red armbands. A tilak marks his forehead. Before him are stone mortars, a pestle, herbs, a small mound of grain, a brass lamp-like figure, and a silver box. Wicker baskets and a green sprig lie nearby, and a microphone is positioned at the side. Swamiji's presence is claimed by the page, but the appearance cues are sufficient for a probable label: a rust robe, a tall turban, rudraksha and gold ornaments, and seated ritual role.
