A smiling person with long dark hair, wearing a rust-orange garment, a red bindi and layered flower garlands with a gold ceremonial pendant, sits on a flower- and palm-leaf-decorated swing suspended by ropes in front of a large waterfall. The person raises one hand in blessing and holds a curved brass horn. Several people bathe in the pool below the falls, and dense green foliage frames the scene. The appearance matches the Swamiji cues of long swept-back hair, saffron-toned clothing, rudraksha-style garlands and ceremonial gold necklace, so this is a probable Swamiji (probable) seated on the swing as the central figure.

A seated figure in a reddish-orange silk dress with gold border sits on a wooden swing decorated with green palm fronds and pink, orange and yellow flowers, suspended before a tall waterfall in a lush jungle setting. A long multi-strand garland of flowers and a gold necklace hang around the neck, and the figure raises one hand in greeting while holding a small object. Water is visible in the foreground pool, with several people bathing in the shallows at left. A rocky orange cliff face rises on the right, and mist fills the air around the falls.
