A man sits in meditation with eyes closed and a red tilak mark on his forehead. He wears an orange saffron shawl draped over one shoulder with a maroon border, and a long double strand of brown rudraksha beads hangs across his chest. The blurred green and pale background suggests an outdoor setting. His hands rest out of frame, and he appears calm and absorbed in meditation. Swamiji (probable): the long swept-back hair, saffron shawl and rudraksha malas are the cues for this in-person meditating figure.
