At centre a figure with a red-orange turban and saffron robe sits with palms pressed together on a red-cushioned throne, flanked by silver lions. To the left a shirtless attendant in orange cloth holds up a lit oil lamp or flame toward the seated figure. Right of centre a deity murti in green and blue garments with flower garlands sits on blue cloth, and gilded standing female figures flank the scene. Flower petals and fruit offerings lie on the stage in a puja setting. The seated figure has distinctive turban, saffron robe and jewelled adornments, a probable match to Swamiji in an in-person ritual.
