A photograph taken outdoors on a gravel plain beneath a bright blue sky with thin clouds and distant snow-capped mountains. A man sits cross-legged on a low red stool, barefoot, with his palms pressed together in front of his chest. He wears a saffron-orange turban with a round gold-and-red ornament, an orange robe with gold trim, a leopard-print shawl draped over the stool, and a wooden rudraksha mala around his neck. Orange cushion-like seat and a ring of grey stones surround him, with a lake visible on the horizon. Swamiji (probable): the figure wears a saffron turban, saffron robes and a rudraksha mala, with a seated, teaching-like posture in a ceremonial setting.
