A photograph of a seated man on an ornate gold throne with a gold cobra-hood backrest, wearing saffron-orange robes, a rudraksha mala, and a gold necklace, raising one hand in blessing while holding a fruit. A man in a blue checked shirt kneels at his feet, offering. Two attendants stand to the left: one in orange robes and a rudraksha mala holds an orange cloth bundle, another in white dhoti with an orange border, bare-chested, wears a long rudraksha mala and stands beside a golden trident. A woman in white sari sits at right holding a red fruit. Red carpet, red curtains and a gold pillar with carved figures form the setting, with a painted deity mural behind the throne. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure wears long swept-back hair, saffron robes, rudraksha malas and gold ornaments on a throne.
