A photograph of a seated man with long dark hair, wearing orange robes and multiple garlands of white, green, and magenta flowers, with hands pressed together in namaskar. He sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne-style seat. Before him, a devotee in a pink polka-dot top and pink-and-white sari blouse offers a plate, while a child in a red headscarf and red-and-white dress stands nearby. Two attendants in orange and white clothing stand at right, one pouring from a silver vessel. Brass and silver ritual vessels sit on a white cloth at the lower foreground, and a room with a window air cooler and stacked books is visible behind. Swamiji (probable): the seated garlanded figure with long hair in orange robes and a red bindi matches the page's description of the event.
