A man with long swept-back dark hair and a red tilak on his forehead sits on an ornate gilded throne upholstered in red zebra-striped fabric, with golden lion-head armrests. He wears a champagne-coloured embroidered silk kurta over a cream and gold-striped dhoti, with his eyes closed and bare feet resting on a red footstool. Behind him are many colourful balloons in red, blue, green, yellow and pink, with white jasmine garlands and orange marigold strings draped on the throne, pink and orange flowers in an arrangement, and a gilded deity murti beside the throne. Appearance cues are long hair, a tilak and ceremonial silk clothing, so this is a probable Swamiji in person seated on his throne at a Brahmotsavam children's day celebration.
