An empty ornate golden throne (peetha) draped with a leopard-print cushion and a tiger-skin rug stands on a raised stage. Strings of white, yellow and red marigold garlands hang from the ceiling, and a floral arch of red, yellow and white blooms frames the seat. Tall gold lion-head armrests flank the throne. In front, a curved row of brass plates holds puja offerings of flowers, fruit and lamps. Purple lighting and carved niches with deity murti images line the walls.

At the centre, a seated figure in red and gold ceremonial dress, with a flower garland and an ornate gold crown-like headdress, sits on a large gold throne. Red and white flower garlands hang in tiers behind him, and marigold garlands run along the red pillared arches on each side. Bouquets of white flowers and fern-like greenery sit along the stage base. Purple lights illuminate the niches with small deity murti figures and framed pictures. A visible identity claim is attributed to the page; the seated figure's appearance, including the crown and ceremonial gold and red dress, is a probable match for Swamiji (probable) seated in ceremonial attire on the throne.2017-07-09A photograph of a seated figure in a saffron-orange robe with a rudraksha mala and a white and pink flower garland, hands pressed together in namaskar, on a gold ornate throne draped with a tiger-striped cloth and leopard-print cushions, flanked by golden lion heads.
