A man in an orange saffron dhoti and shawl with a long dark rudraksha mala and a red bindi sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with red velvet cushions, hands folded in his lap. Behind him stand large deity murtis decorated with garlands of yellow, red and purple flowers; the central figure wears a gold crown and holds a gold object, and a gold bull and gold trident-topped staffs flank the throne. Flower petals lie at his feet. Probable Swamiji cues: long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha mala seated on a throne.
