A photograph of a seated man on a raised stage before a deep red draped curtain with a gold-trimmed valance. He sits on an ornate gold throne with a cobra-hood carved backrest, a trident standing at one side, and a red cushion beneath him. He wears an orange-brown robe, a turban, a long white flower garland and a rudraksha-style necklace, and holds his hand out as he speaks into a microphone on a stand. Brass bells hang from the valance and brass lamps stand along the stage edge. Below, rows of seated devotees in white clothes and orange shawls face the stage, many shaved-headed, and two tripod-mounted cameras frame the scene. A red banner reads Tapurusha. Swamiji is probable, based on the turban, orange robe, garland and ornate throne, consistent with the page's claim.
