A smiling man sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with a deeply carved, repoussé backrest. He wears a red-maroon turban, a saffron-orange and maroon robe draped over one shoulder, and a long multi-strand rudraksha mala with a large gold pendant. Bare feet rest on a striped tiger-skin cloth. Maroon cushions surround him, and a red cloth covers the dais. Behind the throne are magenta and white decorations, pink floral garlands, and a silver lamp stand. A flower arrangement of purple roses and orange-yellow blooms sits in a vase to the left, and a red-brown wooden stand holds small glass items. The figure has long swept-back hair beneath the turban, a rudraksha mala, and saffron-orange clothing, matching the page's claim that Swamiji is present; the appearance cues are distinctive enough to label this as a probable Swamiji seated in person.2015-09-14November 10 20152015-11-10November 22 20152015-11-22July 12 20152015-07-12 +1 copiesA smiling man in a maroon turban with a jeweled ornament sits on an ornate gilded throne with deep red velvet cushions.
