A photograph of a long-haired man seated on an ornate gold-upholstered throne with dark carved wooden arms, raising his right hand in a blessing or greeting gesture. He wears a saffron-orange garment draped over the shoulder, a leopard-print shawl, a red bindi on the forehead and a long necklace of gold beads. The backdrop is a blurred painted blue and orange sky. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, saffron clothing, gold bead necklace and a shawl, seated on a throne in a teaching-stage setting.
