October 18 20102010-10-18A photograph of a man standing in profile with eyes closed, in a meditative posture before a richly decorated golden throne backdrop. He wears an orange saffron shawl over an orange sleeveless garment, with a long ceremonial gold bead necklace of rudraksha-style beads. His long dark hair is swept back, and he has a red bindi on his forehead and a small gold crown-like ornament on his head. Behind him are garlands of yellow marigolds and red and pink flowers, and golden pillars frame the scene. The image reads as a darshan moment.
