A photograph of a seated figure on a gilded throne draped with garlands of yellow, purple, red and white flowers. The seated figure wears a pink dhoti and pink shawl, a gold necklace and a long rudraksha-style mala, with long swept-back hair, and holds a white flower garland. In the foreground a man in white kurta bows low and touches the feet of the seated figure. Two men at left stand with palms pressed together in namaskar, and a woman in a red blouse stands behind the throne. Red velvet cushions and a microphone stand are visible. A blue curtain forms the backdrop. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure's long swept-back hair, pink ornate clothing and gold necklace are consistent with the page's description of the event.
