A photograph of a festive ceremonial scene before a gilded golden throne with red and gold drapery. On the right, a smiling figure in saffron-orange robes, a saffron-and-orange turban, a gold necklace, and a long gold bead garland is seated and gesturing with an open hand toward people reaching in from the right edge; this person has long hair and distinctive ornate adornments, so the appearance-based label is Swamiji (probable). On the left, a man in a white shirt with a rudraksha mala and a conference-style ID badge stands near a man in a white shawl with a red dhoti. Behind them, a man in white robes with a rudraksha mala and tilak stands by the throne.
