A seated man with a swept-back dark hairstyle and tilak on his forehead wears a red-brown shawl over orange robes, with a red and yellow flower garland and a beaded necklace. He holds a tall silver trident-like staff upright, smiling. Two young saffron-robed disciples with shaved heads sit on the floor, one holding a lit oil lamp. In the foreground, devotees in grey and orange clothing kneel with folded hands, one woman in a purple sari. A standing man in white dhoti and orange shawl with a mala stands at right, and a niche with framed deity pictures and garlands is behind them. Appearance suggests a probable Swamiji (probable) seated in the centre, with cues including long swept-back hair, ornate beaded necklace, orange and red clothing and a trident staff, while a satsang or puja setting is shown.
