Photo of a seated figure on a silver-framed throne with a red cushion under a multicoloured fringed canopy, in an open pavilion with a rangoli floor. The central figure wears a rust-red turban, tiered gold necklaces, a white and pink flower garland and a rust-red dhoti. Attendants in orange robes stand at left with hands folded, and a woman in an orange saree stands at right. Floor patterns show pink, white and purple rangoli designs, and a copper vessel sits on a silver stand beside the throne. The setting suggests a Pongal-season ashram gathering; the page identifies the event as Pongal celebrations at the Tiruvannamalai Adheenam. A probable Swamiji is seated on the throne, identifiable by the ornate gold and flower necklaces, the turban and the royal throne, with the page's Swamiji flag applied.
