Beside him a second seated man in orange-and-saffron robes with a rudraksha mala, forehead tilak and glasses sits on a carpet near a bundle of green leaves and a dark snake-like stick. A man in a white shirt with an orange lanyard kneels and receives a mango from the figure, with a tray of mangoes and a bowl of sticks in the foreground. Standing devotees in white and maroon clothing are behind. The figure is an appearance-based probable Swamiji (probable) in the throne-seated role, with cues of red turban, bare-shouldered orange robes and ornate beaded adornments.
