A photograph inside a home shrine room decorated with green leaf garlands, framed deity pictures and yellow marigold strings. A long-haired person in an orange robe with a white-and-red flower garland sits on an orange-draped chair, one hand extended toward a devotee in a white shirt who kneels and bows with folded hands. Beside the chair a shaved-headed man in orange sits bent forward. A man in white clothes with a rudraksha mala stands behind them with hands joined in greeting. Other women in saris stand at right near a side table holding fruit and offerings. The seated figure's appearance is consistent with the page's Swamiji reference, with long hair, an orange robe and a flower garland, so the identification is probable. Background includes a framed Tirupati-style deity image and a fruit-laden tray.
