A photograph of a long-haired person seated against a gold damask-patterned wall, wearing a dark navy blue cloth draped over the shoulders with orange and gold striped borders. A red kumkum mark sits on the forehead. Layered necklaces of rudraksha beads alternating with gold and silver beads hang on the chest, and a matching rudraksha brooch with a green stone is pinned to the shoulder drape. The bare shoulders and arms are visible, and the person is smiling and looking to one side. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, rudraksha malas and ceremonial gold necklaces; the page identifies this event as featuring him, and the appearance cues are consistent.
