A man with long swept-back dark hair and a red tilak stands on an ornate stage in front of golden carved pillars and hanging lamp-lit strings. He wears a rust-red kurta with a matching sash and dhoti-style trousers, a gold necklace, and holds a tall golden trident in one hand and a wooden staff in the other with eyes closed. Smoke or mist fills the air. Golden lion and bull statues and oil lamps hang from above. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, rudraksha-free ornate gold necklace and saffron-red attire on the central stage figure.
