A smiling man with long dark hair, a red-orange cloth wrapped around his body and a brown rudraksha mala around his neck stands at left with his hands pressed together. Beside him a smiling woman in a maroon and gold sari with a yellow blouse holds a purple silk cloth draped over her arms, decorated with orange flower garlands. A man in white dhoti and a rudraksha mala stands at far left. Red chairs and seated attendees fill the background, along with a golden ceremonial palanquin and a fire extinguisher on the wall. Probable Swamiji is recognisable by long swept-back hair, rudraksha mala and saffron-orange clothing.
