A close-up portrait photo of a smiling man with swept-back dark hair, a white forehead band and a dark red dot at the centre of the forehead, raising his right hand in a blessing gesture. He wears a dense necklace of red-brown rudraksha beads with gold ceremonial beads, rudraksha bracelets on the wrist and gold earrings. Behind him is a silver-toned ornate panel with raised floral and deity-like relief patterns, gold tassels and a starry dark background. The figure is bare-chested, adorned as a religious teacher. Swamiji (probable) appears in this photo, with long swept-back hair, rudraksha malas and ceremonial gold necklace cues; no other people are visible.
