A photograph on a stage at a KAILASA event. A seated figure on an ornate gold throne wears a rust-red turban, a rust-red and gold-bordered robe, a gold ceremonial necklace and a rudraksha-style mala, with bare feet, and smiles. Behind him a standing attendant in saffron-and-gold clothing holds a golden trident-staff, and a large painted backdrop of a bare-chested deity with long hair and beaded adornments fills the background. At right, a man in a blue striped shirt and dark trousers sits on a white-covered sofa writing on a paper pad. The figure on the throne matches the appearance cues for a person, seated in a position of honour with rudraksha and ceremonial gold adornments.
