A man sits cross-legged on a raised cushioned seat in profile, facing left, eyes lowered in meditation. He wears a saffron-orange unstitched wrap over his shoulder with a maroon border, and a long strand of dark rudraksha beads hangs across his chest. His hair is long and swept back into a braid, and he has a red tilak on his forehead. A polished brass kalasha-style vessel with a handle and spout sits on the mat in front of him, beside a pale sheet in the foreground. Behind him are white walls, a blue sign and a still pool of water. The figure matches the page's Swamiji reference through appearance cues (long hair, rudraksha mala, saffron clothing), so this is a probable identification.
