A photograph of a man seated in front of a backdrop of marigold and mixed flower garlands in yellow, purple, red and pink. He wears a cream-coloured turban with a red bindi on his forehead, eyes closed in meditation, and a white unstitched cloth draped over his shoulder. He wears multiple strands of heavy gold beads, a large gold pendant with an elephant-head motif set with red and green stones, and a gold cobra-shaped armlet. Behind him is an ornate gold-coloured relief panel. A man in ceremonial dress with a cream turban and long dark hair, gold ornaments and a white garment, with his eyes closed, matches the page's claim of being Swamiji through the turban, long hair and ornate gold adornments, so this is a probable Swamiji appearance.
