A seated figure in a rust-red robe and matching turban sits on an ornate gold-leaf throne with carved lion heads, wearing a rudraksha-style necklace, gold chains and a pink-and-white garland draped over the shoulders; one hand rests at the head while the other gestures outward. A gold trident-topped staff stands at left. Around the dais, a large audience of women in saffron, pink, yellow and blue saris sits on colourful striped mats, many with hands pressed in anjali. A large screen at upper right shows the gathering. Appearance-based candidate: Swamiji (probable), seated on the throne with long hair, turban, saffron-toned robe and ceremonial gold ornaments.
