A man stands on a dark stage before a large ornate golden circular frame, holding a trident in his right hand. He wears a leopard-print garment over a bare chest, rudraksha-style beaded necklaces, a maroon dhoti-like lower garment and strap sandals, with a tilak and long hair. Ceremonial props include a trident-topped staff, a black ceremonial staff with a crescent finial and a feathered implement, while red and orange flame projections and haze fill the backdrop. Swamiji (probable): the figure's long hair, ornate rudraksha necklaces, leopard-print attire and trident match the presentation cues, shown here as a performer in a Kalabhairava-style staged presentation.
