A seated figure on an ornate gold throne with leopard-print cushions receives honour from a shaved-headed priest in white dhoti and gold-bordered shawl with an orange turban. The seated figure wears a maroon-red turban with a crescent moon ornament, maroon-pink robes, a long rudraksha mala, a white flower garland and ceremonial gold necklaces, with a hand raised to the forehead. The priest holds a silver trident-topped staff and a plate of fruit and flowers. A microphone stand and a Yamaha keyboard sit in front of the throne, with a red curtain and painted panels behind. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure's maroon-red turban, crescent ornament, rudraksha mala and gold necklaces match the cues, so the seated figure is labelled Swamiji (probable) as a person present in the scene.
