He wears an orange-red turban, saffron-orange robes, a long rudraksha mala and a bead necklace, and holds a silver staff in his right hand while raising his left hand in a blessing gesture. A microphone stands beside him. Yellow and orange marigold garlands drape the throne back, a silver umbrella hangs above, and strings of coloured fairy lights and magenta drapes form the backdrop. Oil lamps burn at the lower edge. The appearance is consistent with the Swamiji (probable) on the throne, given the saffron robes, rudraksha mala, turban and staff, though identity is uncertain from appearance alone. One person is physically present.2017-10-19October 19 20172017-10-19
