Close photograph of a smiling man wearing a pale silver-cream turban with a red tilak mark on his forehead. He has long dark hair falling behind his shoulders and wears a garland of white chrysanthemums, red roses, green leaves and purple flowers over an ornate pink and lavender embroidered kurta with floral embroidery and gold ceremonial beads. A glittering gold background fills the frame. Swamiji (probable): the long hair, turban, ornate clothing and gold beaded necklace match the page's context, though identification rests only on appearance.
