A man with long, swept-back dark hair and a red bindi stands outdoors before blurred palm fronds and a red building. He wears an orange-saffron garment with a gold-bordered edge draped over his shoulder and multiple ornate gold and black beaded ceremonial necklaces with gold rudraksha-style beads, plus a jewelled bracelet on his wrist. He looks off to the side, calm and attentive. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, saffron clothing, ceremonial gold necklaces and a bindi; he appears in person in this outdoor photograph.
