A photograph of a man standing on a raised platform covered with leopard and tiger-print cloth, holding a tall silver trident with a leopard-patterned wrap and a small drum-like ornament near its top. He wears a leopard-print headband with a crescent moon ornament, a red tilak on his forehead, layered rudraksha malas, bangles on his upper arms, and a flowing orange-red draped garment with a leopard-print sash. He smiles while posed in front of a large backdrop of red and orange flames with blue light beams. Swamiji (probable): a man in orange-red robes with a rudraksha mala, a trident, and long dark hair, posed as a deity-style figure on stage; the appearance cues are partial, so this is a probable identification only.
