A photograph of an outdoor ceremony under a white tent canopy. A seated figure in saffron-orange robes and an orange turban, wearing a rudraksha mala and a gold pendant, sits on a throne-like white seat heavily draped with white jasmine garlands and red flower garlands. Behind him is a large portrait of a man. A woman in a peach-coloured top offers something from a small dish, while a man in a white shirt and rudraksha mala holds a phone nearby. A woman in blue stands at left beside a table with a brass tray. A rocky hillside is visible behind the tent. The figure matches the Swamiji (probable) appearance cues of saffron clothing, orange turban and rudraksha mala.
