A man seated on an ornate silver throne-style chair, wearing a long rust-red robe with a leopard-print belt, long rudraksha mala strands, a gold necklace and a red bead bracelet. He has a long dark braided topknot wrapped with a white crest, a tilak on his forehead, and holds a white conch-shaped object in one hand while raising the other hand to his ear. A microphone on a boom arm is nearby. In the foreground are a brass vessel, a silver ritual implement and a brass deity figure with a raised hand at the right edge. Dark red pillars and greenery sit in the background. The page indicates Swamiji was present, and the figure matches compatible cues of long hair, rudraksha malas and ornate ceremonial dress, so he is identified as Swamiji (probable) seated in person.
