A seated man in saffron-orange robes sits cross-legged on an ornate throne with gold lion-head armrests and a large gold back panel. Long swept-back hair, an orange turban with a gold ornament, a red and white flower garland, and a ceremonial gold and bead necklace with red rudraksha-style beads are visible. Gold bangles adorn his wrists. Behind the throne are striped garlands of red, purple, yellow, white and green flowers, and a white peacock-feather fan or whisk with a white handle stands at the left. The throne is set against a colourful temple-style backdrop. This is a photograph of Swamiji (probable) seated on his peetha, distinguished by orange turban, saffron robes, rudraksha mala, and ceremonial gold ornaments.
