A seated bearded man in a rust-orange turban with a gold ornament and long dreadlocked hair sits on a tiger-skin-draped seat, wearing rudraksha malas, gold armlets, and orange robes. He holds a white crystal-like object in his hands. A tall golden trident stands beside him, and a golden bull figure is at left. Dense crowds of seated devotees fill the foreground, many in orange and white clothing, while two cameras on tripods and a handheld camera operator frame the event in a bright hall with white draped curtains. A red sign reading Sanyasa hangs on a scaffold behind. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure wears long dreadlocked hair, an orange turban, rudraksha malas and gold armlets, with a trident and bull beside him.
