A man with a black beard and shoulder-length dark hair sits eyes closed on an ornate gold throne with a carved, rounded backrest, set against a backdrop of marigold and mixed flower garlands. He wears a rust-red robe, a pink floral garland, multiple rudraksha mala strands, a gold pendant necklace, and a red bindi on his forehead, with his hands resting on red cushioned armrests. Behind him to the right stands a decorated deity murti draped in yellow and orange garlands. A tilted circular vibration of blurred audience heads appears at the lower right edge. Presentation cues include long hair, rudraksha malas and a gold ceremonial necklace, consistent with Swamiji (probable) seated in darshan.
