A man with long, swept-back dark hair stands in front of an ornate gold-leaf relief carving. He wears a flowing yellow garment draped over one shoulder, with multiple strands of rudraksha beads, a pearl necklace with a gold clasp, and a long rudraksha mala with gold and jewelled pendants. Rudraksha bracelets are on his wrist and forearm. He has a red bindi and white tilak on his forehead and raises his open right palm in a blessing gesture. This appearance matches Swamiji (probable) on the basis of long swept-back hair, saffron-yellow ceremonial clothing, rudraksha malas and ceremonial gold necklaces. He is a single person in a photograph.
