A photograph of a stage set with a seated man on an ornate golden throne with lion-head armrests and red cushions. He wears an orange-red turban and orange-red robes, with a dark rudraksha mala around his neck and a gold-coloured waist cloth. Behind him a large pink lotus-petal backdrop, a crescent moon and white stars decorate a purple dome, and a giant silver trident stands to the right. Painted pastel riverfront buildings line the sides of the stage. The figure matches the Swamiji (probable) appearance cues of orange clothing, turban and rudraksha mala while seated on a throne in a stage setting.
