A man seated on an ornate silver-and-red throne raises both hands high above his head in an invocation gesture. He wears an orange-saffron shawl over a rust-coloured garment and a rudraksha mala necklace, with a red tilak on his forehead and a red thread on his wrist. Beside him stands a tall silver trident (trishul). Behind him, seated devotees in white ritual clothes and orange shawls face the stage in a large hall, with red banners on the wall. The description identifies the person as Swamiji (probable) based on the saffron clothing, rudraksha mala and long hair, while the event context is a Sadashivoham session with visesha deeksha and homa.
