A seated man in saffron-orange robes sits cross-legged in meditation posture on an ornate red velvet throne with a gold-carved back and gold lion-head armrests. He wears a rudraksha mala, a heavy gold necklace, gold armbands, a gold belt buckle with a rudraksha-bead belt, and a white tripundra with a red dot on his forehead. Flanking the throne are tall brass oil lamps and a small golden figure, with a tiger-striped cloth draped over the platform. The backdrop shows a dark red and orange cosmic design. A probable Swamiji is shown; the saffron clothing, long swept-back hair, rudraksha mala and ceremonial gold necklace match the appearance of a seated teacher, though the image is small. The photo is part of a satsang setting.
