A seated man in orange robes with long swept-back dark hair, a rudraksha mala and a vertical tilak on his forehead places his right palm on the crown of a kneeling older man in a cream checked shirt who bows his head forward. The orange-robed figure sits on a white draped platform beside a small table with flowers, leaves and a book. Behind them a standing man in white holds a rudraksha mala, and a woman in a pale top with a gold necklace and earrings sits at the lower left. Red curtains and a white ceiling fan fill the background. The robed figure's long hair, saffron clothing and mala match the Swamiji (probable) cues, and the gesture is a blessing on the kneeling devotee.
