A photograph of a smiling bearded man seated on an ornate gold throne with a carved arched back, wearing an orange saffron robe, a white and blue flower garland, and a white tilak with a red dot on his forehead. He rests one hand on a large silver bowl decorated with yellow marigold petals, and a small microphone is clipped to his robe. Two golden standing female figures holding oil lamps flank the throne, and a garland-draped deity murti appears above. The background is pale lavender drapery. Probable Swamiji (probable): long swept-back dark hair, saffron robe and a flower garland, seated on a throne with a silver bowl and a microphone, as in the page's Maheshwara Puja setting.
