A smiling bearded man with long dark hair sits on a red cushioned seat before an ornate gold throne carved with deity figures. He wears a rust-orange wrap over bare shoulders, a long pink-and-gold beaded garland and a white-and-red forehead mark, and raises his right hand in a blessing gesture. Gold lion-head armrests and an oil lamp are at the lower right, and a partially visible person's grey hair appears at the bottom edge. Swamiji (probable) appears in person, with cues of long hair, rust-orange wrap and ornate garland, seated on the throne during the Sadashivoham after-celebration.
