A photograph in a dark-walled room where a man in saffron-orange robes with a multicolour flower garland and rudraksha beads sits on an ornate gold throne draped with a tiger-skin cloth, his bare feet resting on a golden table. Seated women in white and orange saris attend him, with silver platters of flowers and offerings on the table. Hanging brass bells and brass oil lamps surround the throne. A white wall air conditioner is visible on the right. The seated central figure has long swept-back hair, saffron clothing, rudraksha beads and a ceremonial garland, matching the probable Swamiji cues on the throne, so the appearance is a probable in-person match.
