A photograph of a seated figure on a red throne with gold lion-head armrests, wearing a rust-orange turban, orange-and-gold draped garment, leopard-print cloth at the waist, and a green leaf garland. A man in a white shirt bends low to touch the feet of the seated figure, who places a hand on his head in blessing. A young man in a light blue striped shirt with a lanyard holds papers nearby. Behind them, women in white and orange saris and a man in white holding a tray with fruit and flowers stand on a red carpet in an ashram hall. The seated figure's appearance (turban, orange drape, garland, throne) is a presentation with several cues, but the image alone does not establish the identity firmly; the role shown is a devotee receiving blessing from the seated figure.
