Photograph of a smiling man with long swept-back black hair, a red bindi and white tilak, wearing an orange sleeveless garment and layered rudraksha malas and white beaded garlands. He reads a sheet of paper held in both hands, leaning forward. Behind him a shaved-headed man in orange also looks down, and a dark stone deity figure stands beside a carved stone pillar with a gold-framed throne edge visible at right. Foliage fills the background. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, orange clothing, rudraksha malas and garlands.
