A photograph inside a small room with pale blue walls and a window with wooden shutters. A seated man in an orange robe, maroon turban and rudraksha mala, wearing a garland of green and yellow flowers and gold armbands, raises a silver trident with one hand while people kneel before him. A bare-chested attendant in orange stands behind holding the trident, and a boy in a green jacket stands at left. Several devotees kneel on the floor, some in white and red shawls, with rose petals and flower garlands scattered around. Red roses decorate the wall. The seated figure appears to be Swamiji (probable), identified by the turban, rudraksha mala and saffron robe, and seated in a ceremonial role receiving devotees.
