A seated figure in saffron-red clothing is heavily covered in white jasmine garlands and loose pink and white flower petals piled across the lap and floor. A silver trident with a red stone stands upright beside the figure, held by a raised arm. A hand from above pours flowers from a silver plate over the head. Attendants in orange robes sit nearby, one with a rudraksha mala, in a yellow-walled room with a framed mirror and floral toran. The scene reads as a flower-offering puja with padapuja-style adornment. Three to four visible people.

A woman in a red blouse and white sari with gold border kneels at lower left, a small child in pink stands at far left, and petals carpet the floor in a room with yellow walls and a bamboo blind. The seated person's visible cues include long hair, orange clothing and rudraksha, so the appearance-based label is Swamiji (probable).2014-07-01June 22 20142014-06-22 +1 copiesJanuary 01 20082008-01-01February 22 20132013-02-22July 01 20142014-07-01July 01 20142014-07-01July 01 20142014-07-01
