A photograph of a seated saffron-robed figure with eyes closed and palms pressed together in namaskar on an ornate golden throne (peetha) draped with white and yellow flower garlands and a golden canopy. A man in white clothes stands at left reaching toward the seated figure, with another man with curly hair in a red garland seated nearby, and devotees in the lower right corner. Behind is a large red-toned backdrop with a painted image and a background of white daisies, flanked by purple curtains. The setting suggests a darshan or puja. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure wears a crown with a peacock feather, saffron clothing, and ornate gold adornments on a throne, cues that match the page's reference to Swamiji at this event.
