A photograph of a man seated on an ornate gold throne with a large gold arched backrest carved with floral and lion motifs. He wears a red-orange turban with a small gold emblem, a red-orange robe, a gold-and-bead garland layered with a long gold chain, and a red thread on his wrist. His hands rest at his chest as he speaks. Gilded lion figures flank the throne, and a silver trident with a snake coiled around its shaft stands at right against a painted rocky riverside backdrop. Probable Swamiji by appearance: long swept-back ceremonial styling, turban, saffron-orange robes and rudraksha-style gold garland cues, seated in the teaching posture of a discourse.
