A photograph of a ceremony in which a bare-chested man with long, swept-back black hair wearing a red-maroon turban with gold ornaments, gold earrings, a gold-beaded necklace and red bead armlets feeds a baby from a small spoon. The baby, dressed in a white top with an orange trim and a vibhuti or tilak mark on the forehead, is held by a man in glasses and a rudraksha mala. Behind them are a gilded golden structure, a potted green plant, a fan and other people in white. The appearance of the man feeding the baby matches the Swamiji (probable) cues of swept-back long hair, an ornate turban and gold necklace, so he is identified as Swamiji based on appearance alone.
