A photograph outdoors under leafy trees shows a man with long dark hair and a white tripundra on his forehead, wearing an orange-saffron garment over his shoulder and a heavy gold bead necklace. Under a red and gold canopy with tassels, he touches a large dark stone or wooden deity murti, possibly a ganesha or shiva form, with his hand while another person's hands and a small head appear near the base. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, saffron robe and ornate gold necklace, shown performing ritual touching of the murti.
