A seated figure in the centre sits on a large gold-and-red throne, wearing a saffron-orange wrap, orange turban and a long beaded necklace, raising one hand in blessing; a probable Swamiji by his orange turban, ornate ceremonial necklace and throne. Around him, devotees in white and cream kurtas and saris, many wearing orange-red shawls and name badges, kneel in front or stand behind, some in plain white and one woman in a gold-bordered sari. A trident stands to the right of the throne and a small golden figure rests on the armrest. Roughly a dozen people are visible.
