A photograph of a seated man in a ceremonial tent at a temple ritual site. He sits cross-legged on a woven mat, wearing an orange-saffron shawl over his body and a long saffron cloth, with a red bindi on his forehead and a long gold bead necklace. His long dark hair falls to his shoulders and he rests one hand on his knee. Orange marigold petals lie on the mat in front. Behind him is a colourful patterned cloth canopy with wooden poles. To the left, a young man in white clothes and an orange shawl sits beside him. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure has long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and a gold necklace, consistent with the page's account of the ceremony. Visible people are seated and in the background.
