Close-up photo of a smiling man with long dark hair tied back, wearing an orange saffron shawl with a gold border and an ornate gold ceremonial necklace of large beads with a rudraksha-style mala beneath. He has a red tilak on his forehead and sits in front of an elaborate gold-embossed throne backrest with floral and scroll carvings. Probable Swamiji: long swept-back hair, saffron shawl, gold ceremonial beads and a seated ceremonial setting are present, and he is shown in person.
