A photograph of a man standing in front of a golden deity shrine with ornate gilded carvings. He wears a saffron-red robe, a thick garland of white jasmine, pink lotus-like flowers and orange marigolds, a gold armlet and a gold chain, with a white and red tilak on his forehead. Hanging brass bells and a brass oil lamp are visible beside him, and strings of small fairy lights glow on the right. Swamiji (probable): long dark hair and a red robe with a gold necklace and garland, consistent with the page's claim that he is present at this event.
