A photograph of a seated figure in a long orange robe on an ornate gold throne with carved lion-head armrests, hands pressed together in namaskar with eyes closed. Around the throne, devotees sit on the floor in white clothes and yellow shawls, several with palms joined in prayer. A woman in a red sari kneels at the lower left with hands folded. A small tray of fruit, coconuts and offerings sits beside the throne, with a water bottle nearby, and a tent-like red backdrop. The setting looks like a sarvadarshan paadapooja. The person on the throne appears to be a person, with long swept-back hair and saffron robes, but the identification is uncertain from appearance alone. Visible people number about ten, including those partially shown.
