A man seated on an ornate gold-and-red throne, wearing orange saffron robes draped over one shoulder and a long rudraksha mala of brown beads around his neck. He has long dark hair swept back, a red bindi on his forehead, and is smiling broadly while raising one hand in a gesture of speech. His other hand rests on his lap. A black-and-white photographic backdrop of tree branches and a green palm frond appear behind him. Swamiji (probable): the long hair, orange clothing, rudraksha mala and throne are the cues for this seated teacher.
