A man stands on a raised stage in front of an ornate gold repoussé arch with a purple backdrop. He wears an orange sleeveless top, orange harem-style trousers, a leopard-print wrap at the waist and a dense belt of dark beads. Layered silver and crystal necklaces, a large blue pendant, beaded bracelets and armlets are visible, and a red bindi marks his forehead. He holds a silver trident with red stone accents in his left hand, one hand on his hip, and a small microphone is clipped near his face. Probable Swamiji by appearance: long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha beadwork. He is a performer in costume on stage with no visible audience.
