A seated figure in saffron-orange robes and a matching orange turban sits cross-legged with hands folded on a large ornate golden throne with red cushions and a golden canopy overhead. A long beaded rudraksha-style mala and a gold necklace are worn, and a golden trident stands beside the throne. Behind is a large backdrop of the Kumbh Mela Nasik 2015 event showing a golden procession chariot, crowds and decorated ritual scenes. The seated figure appears to be Swamiji (probable), given the saffron clothing, turban, mala and ornate gold necklace, though appearance-based identity is uncertain. The image is a photograph of a staged event stage.
