A photograph of a man on a stage holding a silver trident (trishula) in his right hand. He wears a red-orange turban with a gold crescent ornament at the front, a red-orange draped cloth over one shoulder and bare chest, layered gold necklaces and beaded gold bangles on his arms. He has a red bindi on his forehead, a full beard and long hair. The background is a dark curtain on the left and a red and blue lit backdrop on the right. Appearance cues of long hair, turban, saffron-orange clothing and layered gold ornaments are present and the page identifies the event as involving Swamiji, so this is a probable identification of Swamiji performing on stage.
