A man stands barefoot on a stage before a large projected backdrop of a waterfall and rock formations with a green forest. He wears a saffron-orange draped garment with gold-edged pleats, a rudraksha mala of dark beads, and a red tilak on his forehead. He raises a golden trident (trishula) with one hand, holding it by a golden drum-like damaru, while his other hand rests on his hip. Swamiji (probable): the man's long swept-back hair, saffron clothing, rudraksha mala and ceremonial trident match the page's description of Swamiji at this event. The page describes a 2017 Guinness record event, but the stage performance visible here is not otherwise identified.

Green stage lights and a large projected backdrop of a rocky waterfall and cliffs surround him.

Light beams and a faint pattern of light spots cover the floor behind him. A candidate matching the appearance cues of a long-haired, rudraksha-adorned figure with a trident is present, but the appearance is not distinctive enough to confirm identity, so this is a performer or sannyasi with a trident and damaru on stage.2017-12-16A barefoot man in a saffron-orange dhoti-style garment and matching sleeveless wrap stands on a dark stage under white and yellow spotlights.
