A seated man on an ornate gold throne holds a tall gold ceremonial staff topped with a small figure and raises his right hand in blessing. He wears a black turban with a gold jewelled band, a white forehead marking and a red bindi, and is bare-chested with layered gold necklaces, a rudraksha mala and a saffron-orange shawl draped over one shoulder. Gold bangles cover his wrists. Behind him stand gold deity statues and gold canopy-like backdrops against a maroon curtain. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure has a turban, ornate gold clothing and rudraksha malas, matching the page's reference to Swamiji. The image carries a copyright notice in the lower corner.
