A smiling man with shoulder-length dark hair sits cross-legged on an ornate golden throne with lion-head armrests, centred in a shrine-like hall. He wears a saffron-orange wrap, a red-orange rudraksha mala with a ceremonial gold necklace, and a red bindi, and his bare feet rest on a tiger-skin cloth draped over the golden platform. Behind him a large gilded arch frames the throne, and two painted deity figures with multiple arms in orange-red dhotis and green sashes stand on either side. Probable Swamiji, seated on the throne with long hair, saffron wrap and rudraksha mala, as the page indicates his presence at this event.
