A man stands on a stage before a large glowing backdrop of many multi-headed deity faces in pink, purple and blue tones. He wears a rust-red saffron-style dhoti and drape with a red-orange shawl, a black turban with a tilak on his forehead, rudraksha mala bands on his upper arms and wrist, and a gold pendant necklace. He holds a tall silver trident (trishul) in his right hand and rests his left hand on his hip. Silver trishuls stand beside him and two golden lion figures flank the base of the stage. Swamiji (probable) is shown here with clear cues: a turban, saffron clothing, rudraksha malas and ceremonial gold necklace, in a Shiva-themed stage presentation.
