A seated man meditates with eyes closed on a woven mat in front of an orange temple structure. He wears a flowing saffron-orange garment with gold borders, draped over one shoulder, and a heavy gold bead necklace with dark accents. Long dark hair falls past his shoulders, and a red bindi marks his forehead. His hands rest in a meditation mudra on his lap. Behind him, a tiered orange base is decorated with yellow and pink flower garlands, and the ground is patterned with white and coloured kolam-style lines and dark pebbles. The figure's appearance, long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and ornate gold necklace, is consistent with the page's reference to Swamiji, so this is a probable identification of the meditating sannyasi.
