A seated man in saffron-orange robes and a matching orange turban sits on an ornate silver throne (peetha) before a large embroidered backdrop of gold, green, blue and yellow sequined arches, with strings of fairy lights and draped maroon curtains around the stage. He wears a rudraksha mala and raises one hand in blessing while holding a silver staff. Marigold garlands drape the throne. In the foreground at left, a blurred hand holds a brass lamp with lit wicks, and a silver lamp stand sits nearby. This is consistent with Swamiji (probable) seated in a throne setting, with his orange turban, saffron robes and rudraksha mala as cues. A silver kalasha-style canopy crowns the throne.
