A photograph of a seated man on an ornate silver-and-red throne at a ceremonial gathering. He wears a rust-orange draped garment, has a long dark braid, and raises a silver staff topped with a finial in his right hand while holding a small ritual item in the other. A silver peacock figure sits at the base of the throne, and a silver lectern stands at left. Around him sit a large crowd of devotees in white, saffron and orange garments, many wearing rudraksha malas and orange shawls, arranged on red and pink floor cloths before red and yellow draped backdrops and a screen. Probable Swamiji (probable) seated on the throne, recognized by his long swept-back hair, saffron-toned clothing and ceremonial staff; the seated devotees are in a satsang setting.
