A photograph of a seated man in an orange-saffron robe with long dark swept-back hair, a red-brown forehead mark, and a gold bead necklace, holding a white flower garland at a smoky fire ritual. In front of him are a metal bowl and a small cup on a low platform decorated with orange marigold garlands and pink roses. A microphone stand is visible at right and smoke fills the background. The appearance matches the ceremonial cues the page associates with a person, but identity is uncertain.
