A photograph of a long-haired figure in a saffron-orange robe and a multi-strand orange-beaded rudraksha mala seated on a dark maroon cushioned throne, leaning forward and extending one arm to place palms on the forehead of a bald older man in a white short-sleeved shirt and wristwatch who bows with hands pressed together in greeting. Behind them a seated man in white clothing with a white vibhuti line on his forehead and a beaded necklace watches. The room has white walls, wall-mounted fans and an air conditioning unit, with a maroon towel on the throne. Probable Swamiji: the seated figure shows long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and a rudraksha mala, and is the presiding figure receiving the devotee's greeting. Dhyanapeetam-style satsang setting.
