Photograph of a man seated in profile, facing right, wearing a sleeveless saffron-orange garment. He has long, swept-back dark hair and a red tilak on his forehead, and wears a thick necklace of large yellow flower buds around his neck and shoulder. Behind him is a brass oil lamp with white and yellow flower garlands, and a wooden tray holding fruit, possibly apples or pomegranates, beside steel objects. A white cushion is at left and a dark background lies behind. The Swamiji cues of long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and a ceremonial garland are present, so this is a probable appearance-based identification of the Swamiji as the seated person in orange, consistent with the page's Bhagavad Gita satsang darshan context.
