Photograph of a seated man in orange saffron robes on an ornate gold throne with cream cushions, garlanded with yellow and multicoloured flower strands, smiling and gesturing with one raised hand. He wears a long beaded rudraksha-style necklace and his hair falls past his shoulders. Behind him stands a large framed image of a goddess with a red face, crown and gold jewellery, beside trident-shaped ceremonial stands. To the right a woman in a white sari with green border bows low and touches the foot of the throne. Two men in orange clothing and a man in white sit on the floor at left, and a gold pedestal and ornate gold stand sit at the edges. Red banner backdrop with decorative lettering. Swamiji (probable): the seated man wears saffron robes, long swept-back hair and a rudraksha mala, and is treated as the honoured central figure on the throne; identity is an appearance-based label only.
