A seated figure in an orange-red turban and saffron robes, wearing a multicoloured flower garland, sits on an ornate gilded throne with red cushions and a tiger-skin cloth. Behind the throne is a large carved relief of a multi-armed deity murti holding a trident-like staff. In the foreground, a person with long dark braided hair wearing an orange garment holds a lit multi-flame brass oil lamp toward the throne. Carved copper-coloured panels, brass lamps and a copper pot decorate the stage. The scene resembles a ritual aarti offering before a throne.2016-05-02A photograph of a ceremony on an ornate stage.

He wears a long beaded mala and a gold necklace, with a red-orange shawl over his shoulders, and a forehead marking. A shaved-headed priest in an orange cloth kneels at the left, holding a lit flame over a vessel as part of a ritual. Brass bells hang at the top and gold-painted pillars frame the scene. The seated figure appears to be Swamiji (probable), based on saffron clothing, turban, shawl, beaded mala and gold necklace, seated in a place of honour.2013-03-04May 09 20132013-05-09September 12 20172017-09-12August 09 20172017-08-09 +1 copiesDecember 03 20162016-12-03A photograph of a golden ornate throne set against a dark textured backdrop with hanging brass lamps.
