A seated man in a maroon-brown turban with a crescent emblem and a maroon robe sits on an ornate gilded throne shaped like a cobra hood, with a red cushion and tiger-striped cloth. He wears a long pink-and-white flower garland, a rudraksha-style bead mala and a gold pendant, and holds his hand near a small brass tray on a stool. A gold trident stands to the left, brass bells hang above, and a red curtain forms the backdrop. The man is the only person visible. Swamiji (probable): the seated man in the turban and maroon robe, with ceremonial gold necklaces and bead mala, is seated on the throne as the event's teacher.
