A photograph of a man seated on an ornate silver throne with a red velvet seat and swan-shaped armrest, holding a tall silver ceremonial staff topped with a finial in his right hand. He wears a rust-orange robe over one shoulder, a long necklace, a red wrist thread, and has long dark hair and a beard. Seated and standing devotees in white and orange clothing fill the hall around him, many with garlands and rudraksha. A red backdrop and gold draping frame the scene. Swamiji (probable): the long hair, orange robe and ornate necklace are consistent with the page, and he is positioned on the throne as the central figure.
