A seated man in rust-orange robes, wearing a matching orange turban with a jewelled ornament, a long rudraksha mala and a large gold pendant, sits cross-legged with eyes closed on a tiger-skin-draped seat. He holds a small staff and wears a leopard-print waist cloth and gold armbands. Beside him stands a gold bull statue (Nandi) and a tall gold trident, and a large crowd of seated devotees fills the foreground and background in a bright hall with pale draped curtains. Several people wear white, orange and saffron clothing. The setting looks like a darshan or discourse. The man's appearance, with long hair under a turban, rudraksha and ornate gold adornments, matches a probable Swamiji candidate.
