A photograph of a long-haired man in an orange saffron wrap and a beaded rudraksha-style necklace, smiling broadly and raising one arm on a stage. Behind him is a large printed portrait of a smiling man in an orange headcloth, and at right is an ornate gold throne with a red cushion beside a tripod-mounted camera. The blue curtain backdrop suggests a satsang hall. Swamiji (probable) appears as an in_person speaker, identified by long swept-back hair, orange clothing and rudraksha beads, with the printed portrait as a depiction.
