A figure with long dark hair and a saffron-orange kurta with gold embroidery stands with palms pressed together before an ornate gold throne (simhasana) decorated with yellow and red garlands and white jasmine strands, with a golden kalasha-like canopy above. A man in a cream shirt and white dhoti with gold border holds a red-covered object toward him. Behind them an orange-robed attendant stands near the throne. Flowers, a wooden pillar and a green-lit backdrop with decorative emblems complete the scene. Two more people in traditional white attire stand at the right edge. Figure with long hair appears to be Swamiji (probable), based on the long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and the throne setting.2008-12-28 +1 copiesA woman in a rust-brown tunic and matching turban-style cap stands on a gold-and-red throne with a tiger-skin cushion, extending her hand to bless the head of a man in a maroon kurta and white dhoti who stands with palms pressed together in namaste on a red carpet. She wears a long white and orange garland. Behind them a large backdrop shows a smiling man in a pink turban with a bindi.
