Behind him stand several men in white dhotis with orange borders, rudraksha malas and ash markings; one kneels at center holding a small metal lamp. A gold-embossed throne and a red velvet cushion frame the scene, with a fan and brass lamps at left. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure wears a turban, multiple gold ceremonial necklaces, and orange-red ornate clothing, consistent with the page's Deepavali satsang blessing context.
