A man with long swept-back dark hair and a moustache sits cross-legged on a red and gold throne-style chair on a stage. He wears a red sleeveless vest with gold buttons, a leopard-print waist band, a rust-red dhoti, and layered gold chains, with a red bracelet on his wrist. He holds a golden staff topped with a carved animal head. Behind him a large backdrop shows a banyan-like tree with hanging aerial roots over a calm water bank. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, ornate gold necklaces and a golden staff suggest the presiding spiritual figure at the event.
