A photograph of a man seated on an ornate gold-and-red throne with a large gilded backrest, eyes closed and palms raised outward in a blessing or meditative gesture. He wears white ritual dhoti and shawl with gold borders, a long rudraksha mala, a gold chain with a pendant, a red bindi on his forehead, and beaded bracelets. A blurred figure in a yellow top sits in the lower right foreground. Probable Swamiji: long swept-back dark hair, rudraksha mala and gold necklace on a throne, consistent with the page's reference to Swamiji at this event.
