A man with long, dark, swept-back hair and a red bindi stands before an ornate reddish-brown temple shrine topped with a thatched bundle. He wears a saffron-orange garment with gold border, multiple strands of rudraksha beads, and rudraksha bracelets on his wrists and upper arms. He grips yellow twisted ropes that hang from the shrine, and yellow marigold garlands drape the structure beside a golden deity murti seated in a niche with a red mark on its forehead. Appearance-based probable Swamiji (probable) is present in person, shown with long hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha malas while performing a ritual rope-pulling act at a temple ceremony.
