A photograph of a satsang gathering with a seated man on an ornate dark wooden throne with a gold-toned cushion, centred before a painted backdrop of a snowy mountain and blue sky. He wears an orange garment with a leopard-print shawl, a white and red flower garland, and a red bindi on his forehead, smiling with eyes closed. Around him, devotees in white and yellow-bordered clothes press forward with folded hands and extended arms. A man with a tilak stands behind the throne in a yellow shawl. Foreground shows a partially visible bald man looking up. Swamiji candidate appearance is probable based on long swept-back hair, orange saffron clothing, garland and distinctive leopard-print shawl, seated on a throne; attribution is appearance-based only.
