A posed group photograph on a white-tiled platform before a white throne-like seat. A man in orange-red robes stands centre with long dark hair, a red forehead mark and a hands-folded greeting, a hand raised in blessing; the appearance is a probable Swamiji candidate with long swept hair and saffron clothing. Seated at left, a man in white dhoti and shirt with a gold chain palms together in namaste; behind him a man in white with an orange scarf does the same. At right, a woman in pink sari and bangles folds her hands, and an older woman in a yellow-green patterned sari sits with a beaded mala. A small boy in a striped shirt and jeans sits in front. Behind them an orange-draped altar holds a framed deity portrait with marigold garlands, brass lamps, kalasha and flowers.
