Photo of a figure seated on an ornate gold throne with a gold canopy and carved lion armrests on a stage with purple backdrop and overhead stage lights. The seated figure wears a red-orange turban, gold necklaces and bangles, and a pink flower garland, and holds a tall silver staff raised in one hand. Beside the throne stands a large black stone deity murti with a cobra hood, four arms, a red-orange cloth, layered white and gold necklaces and a multicolour flower garland hanging at its side. A trident leans against the throne base and a yellow flower arrangement lies on the platform. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure's turban, gold jewellery and red-orange clothing match the page's Swamiji label, though the identity is an appearance-based judgement.
