A smiling man in a multicoloured pink, orange and yellow turban and a champagne-coloured embroidered sherwani with sequin detailing stands at a blue-draped altar, his hand near a row of white pillar candles. Behind him is a large yellow and black decorative panel with an Om symbol and red and white swirl ornaments, and a vase of flowers sits on the altar. He has long dark hair and a gold chain at his neck. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, a multicoloured turban and ornate embroidered attire with a gold necklace, matching the page's Jayanthi celebration, though the appearance is only moderately distinctive. A shawl-free ceremonial lighting scene with no other visible people.
