A photograph of two men raising their hands in a shared gesture, with a brass oil lamp on a tall stand behind them. The man on the left wears a white kurta with a red cord around his neck and his arms raised high. The man on the right wears a saffron-orange robe with a gold border, sits cross-legged on a red cushion, and smiles while raising one hand, with the other hand extended palm-up toward the lower frame. His hair is swept back and he wears a dark bead necklace. The background is a warm golden-orange backdrop with a circular emblem. Swamiji (probable): the seated man in the orange robe has long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and a dark bead necklace, and sits in a position of honour.
