A photograph of a ceremonial stage scene. A seated man in rust-orange robes and a long gold necklace with gold ornaments sits on an ornate silver throne with a leopard-print cushion, holding a silver staff. A kneeling man in white dhoti bends forward to touch his feet, while two attendants in saffron-orange cloth stand beside him, one holding up a folded paper. The attendants wear rudraksha malas and white body markings. A red curtain forms the backdrop. The seated figure is an appearance-based probable Swamiji (long swept-back hair, rudraksha, gold necklace, ornate ceremonial clothing), seated on a throne as the honoured figure.
