A barefoot man stands on a raised red-edged stage holding a silver trident with a twisted shaft in his right hand, his left arm raised. He wears a tall black turban, multiple strands of gold and bead necklaces, rudraksha bracelets, a rust-orange shawl draped over the shoulder, a leopard-print wrap around the waist, and rust-orange dhoti-style trousers. Behind him a large relief panel shows a seated deity murti with multiple arms holding a drum-like object, flanked by carved animal figures, with a tiger skin draped at the base. Green-lit potted plants frame both sides under a canopy of hanging golden leaves. Probable Swamiji cues: long swept-back hair under a turban, ceremonial gold necklaces, rudraksha malas and saffron-orange clothing.
