A seated man in a maroon-brown robe sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with red cushions, in front of a red curtain and a gold-framed backdrop with a deity murti above. He wears a maroon turban with a jewelled ornament, a long multi-strand gold necklace, a gold pendant and gold armlets, and his hands rest in a meditative pose. A microphone stand stands before him. A gold trident stands at left, decorative flag banners with painted elephant motifs hang at the sides, brass oil lamps and potted plants surround the platform, and white offering packets sit at the base. The seated man has distinctive ceremonial adornments and a throne setting, matching the page's account of a Shiva Deeksha event, so he is a probable appearance-based candidate for a person, seated in person.
