A long-haired seated figure in an orange-brown garment and dark rudraksha beads leans forward and lays his right hand on the head of a young boy in a dark sleeveless top with a red-and-black beaded cord. The seated figure holds a folded paper in his left hand. Beside them stands a man in a white dhoti-style cloth with gold border, bare-chested, wearing rudraksha malas and a gold chain, with white forehead markings. Behind them are a red-and-gold festoon backdrop, a curly-haired boy in white, and a boy in a red shawl. A red-and-black tiger-striped cushioned seat and floral offerings lie at the bottom of the frame. Probable Swamiji (probable) appears as the seated figure, identified by long swept-back hair, orange garment, and heavy rudraksha mala cues, performing a blessing on the boy.

A photograph of a seated figure in saffron-orange robes wearing a long multicoloured flower garland with pink, purple and green accents, with long swept-back dark hair, extending his right hand in blessing toward a young man kneeling on the left in a mustard-yellow shirt and rudraksha mala. Beside them, a second man in orange shawl over white clothes kneels with a red tilak on his forehead. Behind, a standing man in white dhoti and shirt watches. A white cushioned seat, a potted palm, an electric fan and red drapes with gold borders form the backdrop of an indoor hall. The seated figure bears distinctive saffron robes, a long flower garland and long swept-back hair, consistent with the page's Swamiji presence, though the appearance is only probable.
