A seated long-haired man in an orange-saffron robe and red sleeveless top, wearing a rudraksha mala, sits on an ornate gold throne with red velvet cushions and extends his hand in blessing over a bowed man in white kurta and white dhoti wearing a white and red flower garland. Other people stand nearby in white clothes, and a woman in a light sari watches. A tray with offerings, flowers and small items sits on a white cloth. Cream walls frame the room. The seated figure appears to be Swamiji (probable), identified by the long swept-back hair, saffron robe and rudraksha mala, and is seated in person.
