A smiling man with long dark hair, a white tripundra and red bindi sits with eyes closed on an ornate silver-and-red throne, wearing a rust-orange shawl over his shoulder and a bare arm adorned with a white armlet. His hand rests on the head of a devotee kneeling at the lower left, while a silver ceremonial staff stands at the right. Behind him, shaven-headed devotees in orange and white attire sit in a warmly lit hall. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has long swept-back hair, rust-orange shawl and distinctive armlet adornments, and is honoured on a throne during the event.
