A photograph of a seated figure on a red and gold throne at a darshan event. The seated person wears an orange-brown turban, an orange-brown robe, long dark hair, a long rudraksha-style mala, and a white and pink flower garland. Several devotees bend or kneel before him, including a man in a striped blue-and-white shirt bowing low and a woman in a yellow sari. A woman in an orange sari and gold necklace stands nearby, and a camera on a tripod is visible in the background. Golden ornamental trident-like finials are in the foreground. Probable Swamiji cues are the turban, long hair, orange robe and rudraksha mala, in a seated honoured role, so the identity is labelled probable only from appearance.
