A man seated cross-legged on an ornate gold throne (peetha) on a stage, smiling, with hands resting in his lap. He wears a green silk garment with gold trim, long dark hair, a red-and-white beaded necklace, rudraksha-style mala beads and red-and-gold bangles on his arms. The throne is framed by red and yellow flower garlands, and a red-and-white flower-garlanded backdrop displays a deity murti. Two orange-and-gold decorative banners with a dove emblem flank the throne, a golden kalasha-style finial stands to the left, and red flowers lie on the gold dais. Swamiji (probable) is marked by the long swept-back hair, rudraksha-style beads, ceremonial gold ornaments and saffron-toned ornate garments on the throne.
