A man with long dark hair and a red dot on his forehead sits cross-legged on an orange cushion placed on a low wooden platform over a mat, in an open-air courtyard. He wears an orange saffron wrap draped over one shoulder and a long rudraksha mala of brown beads around his neck, with hands resting in his lap. Beside him stands a polished brass vessel, and to his right a dark stone deity murti or linga is decorated with yellow and purple marigold garlands. Palm trees and grey stone figures stand in the background behind an orange wall. Swamiji (probable): the seated meditating figure wears a saffron wrap, rudraksha mala and long swept-back hair, consistent with the page's reference to a satsang.
