A photograph of a long-haired man seated on an ornate silver-and-red throne in a hall with red drapes, holding a silver staff with a serpent-topped finial in his right hand. He wears an orange-brown dhoti and shawl, a rudraksha mala, a gold necklace and a gold waist ornament, with a vibhuti marking on his forehead. He is surrounded by seated devotees, mostly women in white and orange-saffron garments, some in white with red shawls, and a few standing people in the background. A second silver staff stands at right beside a silver oil lamp stand on a small table. A camera tripod is visible behind. The seated man has distinctive long hair, saffron-toned ornate clothing, rudraksha and gold adornments, matching the probable identity cues, so this is an appearance-based probable Swamiji (probable) in person seated on the throne, presiding over the gathering.
