A photograph of a single seated figure on a stage in meditation pose, hands resting together in the lap. The figure wears an orange-saffron robe and has long dark hair. He sits on a large white cushioned armchair with a white footstool, set before a rust-red backdrop hung with yellow and orange marigold garlands and small flower decorations. Floral arrangements in red and white stand at each side, and yellow and white draped side tables sit on the wooden stage. The scene is a meditation or darshan setting. Swamiji (probable): the saffron robe, long swept-back hair and seated throne presentation are appearance cues on the stage, and the page names him for this event.
