A seated man in orange saffron robes, bare-shouldered over one arm, with a long swept-back hairstyle tied in a knot and a red bindi with white tilak on his forehead. He wears heavy ornate gold beaded necklaces and a rudraksha mala, with a gold-and-rudraksha armlet on his upper arm. His hands rest in his lap. Behind him are pink and orange balloons, a gold-carved panel and a striped red-and-white cloth, with a microphone stand at right. Swamiji (probable): the visible cues are the long swept-back hair, saffron robes, ornate gold necklaces and rudraksha mala. Printed copyright text runs down the right edge of the photo.
