A man with long, swept-back dark hair stands on a red-draped stage holding a tall silver-gold trident in his right hand, with a rudraksha bracelet on his upper arm and a rudraksha mala at his neck. He wears a leopard-print garment with a gold-bell fringed waist band and black trousers. To the left, a bright orange-yellow flame or fire-lit backdrop and a gilded, ornate frame glow. A seated man in orange robes sits at lower right, and a standing person in white stands at the far right against a dark backdrop. Swamiji (probable) appears as the trident-holding figure, with distinctive long hair, rudraksha malas and leopard-print ceremonial dress; he is a performer on stage rather than a seated devotee.
