A photograph of a man standing on a stage in front of a gold ornate throne with a red cushioned seat. He wears a rust-brown turban with a gold ornament, a rust-brown robe wrapped at the waist, and multiple gold necklaces with white jasmine and red flower garlands. He raises both palms outward in a gesture of blessing while smiling. A golden trident stands behind his left shoulder, a brass oil lamp and a tall wooden lamp stand are to the left, and two clay pots with green plants sit at the front. Behind the throne are white deity murti figures with crowns. A fan is visible at the left edge. Swamiji (probable): the rust-brown robe, turban and layered gold garlands match the presentation, and he stands as the central figure at the ceremony.

He wears a rust-brown ochre robe draped over his shoulders, a long red-and-yellow garland, a gold ornamental necklace and gold bangles, and has long dark hair and a red tilak on his forehead. He holds his hands forward in an expressive gesture while speaking. A golden trident stands to his left, a golden tree hangs above, and a gold cobra hood is visible on the throne behind. A rolled red cushion and a patterned rug lie on the stage floor, with a white cooler beside the stage railing. The large relief figure in the background is a deity murti, not a physical person. The man has distinctive long swept hair, ornate gold necklace and garland, and fits the a person appearance cues while being on the main stage.2017-02-26February 16 20172017-02-16A bearded man in a brown turban and brown robes stands on a stage with both palms raised in blessing, smiling.
