A photograph taken at a large hall event. A man with long dark hair piled high on his head stands on a golden throne with lion-headed armrests, wearing a rust-red robe draped over one shoulder and a thick rudraksha mala of reddish beads around his neck. A tall silver trident stands at left. Behind him a seated audience fills the room, many with palms pressed together in namaste and several wearing orange and saffron shawls. Patterned walls with gold panels form the backdrop. Water bottles sit on a small table at right. The standing figure has long swept-back hair, a rudraksha mala and a red robe, so the appearance-based label applies: Swamiji (probable), in person on the throne.
