Photograph of a seated man in profile at an indoor satsang, wearing a deep red sleeveless garment with gold beaded necklaces, a jeweled brooch and a beaded gold-and-red armband, with long dreadlocked hair swept back and a white forehead mark. He rests one hand on a silver ritual stand. Behind him stand silver trident-like staffs and a red wooden door, with a blurred audience in white and orange clothing. The swami label above is an appearance-based probable identification from distinctive long locks, ornate gold necklaces and a red robe, and no printed name appears in the scene.
