A seated man in a deep red-maroon robe and matching red-and-gold turban holds a tall white staff (trident-like rod) upright with his left hand. He wears heavy gold necklaces and a gold ceremonial pendant, red beaded armbands, a red bindi and leopard-print cushions beneath him, with red drapery and a painted backdrop behind. The appearance matches the Swamiji (probable) cues of ornate red-gold clothing, turban, rudraksha-style gold adornments and staff, and the page flags his presence at this event, so he is treated as present in person. Crowd not visible.
