A photograph of a temple ritual in which a long-haired man in an orange-saffron dhoti and shawl, wearing rudraksha mala necklaces and beaded armlets, holds a lit five-flame oil lamp on a silver tray toward two gilded metal statues. The central statue is a four-armed deity murti with a tall crown, holding a trident and other attributes; beside it stands a female deity murti in gold-toned dress. Behind them, two shaved-headed men in white ritual clothes sit, and a window with floral garlands and gold decorations frames the setting. Probable Swamiji's appearance (long hair, saffron clothing, rudraksha malas) matches the performer.
