A seated man on an ornate gilded throne with red cushions is being honoured at a padapuja-style ceremony. He wears a white turban, a cream silk kurta with a shawl draped over one shoulder, and a white and red flower garland with a gold necklace. A bald man in white kneels and holds the seated man's hand, while another man in an orange robe bends forward at the lower left. A woman in a white sari with gold border stands at the right beside the throne. The throne carries a carved deity relief and white and green flower garlands. Scenes like this match the auspicious worship honouring a guru. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has long dark hair, a white turban and a cream silk kurta with a gold garland and necklace, and is receiving veneration on the throne.
