The seated figure, on an ornate gold chair, smiles and reaches out, with one hand raised toward the old man's forehead in blessing. Behind them a woman in a grey sari with a red border watches, and another person in white stands near a table with a bottle of water and a digital clock. The setting is a plain beige room. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure has long swept-back hair, saffron robes, rudraksha malas and sits on a gilded throne.
