He has a white forehead mark with a red centre and holds his hands together in front of his chest in a teaching gesture. A golden trident stands at the right edge of the frame, and behind him are garlands of yellow, red, white and purple flowers around a deity murti. Pink flowers lie at the bottom edge. Swamiji (probable) appears here as the seated teacher, based on the long hair, saffron robes, rudraksha mala and throne, presented as a discourse setting.
