Photograph at dusk of a man in saffron-orange robes and a long gold bead necklace holding a multi-tiered brass aarti lamp with several flames, smiling and gazing upward. A small red tilak marks his forehead. Behind him stands a golden trident, and a second person in white and another in glasses are partly visible in the background. An ornate golden architectural element is at the right. Swamiji (probable) appears to be the man holding the aarti lamp, based on his long swept-back hair, saffron robes, and rudraksha-style gold bead garland.
