A seated man in orange sannyasi robes with a yellow flower garland and a rudraksha mala places his right hand on the forehead of a standing man in white ritual dhoti and shawl with red border, who holds his hands together in namaskar and wears gold beaded necklaces. The seated figure has long swept-back hair, bare-armed sleeveless orange garment, and sits on an ornate gold and red throne. Behind them a board lists donors who built the Ananda Sabha, and a woman in a cream sari with a tray stands at left. Swamiji (probable): the seated man in orange with long hair, rudraksha mala and ornate throne, giving blessing to a devotee.
