He wears a flowing saffron-orange robe and a long rudraksha mala, with long dark hair and a white vibhuti marking with a red kumkum dot on his forehead. He smiles and looks upward. Behind him is an orange wall and a blue wall panel. A partially visible person in blue stands at the left edge.

A tall man in a loose orange-saffron robe and a heavy gold necklace of ornate links stands on the stairs, one hand resting on his robe, smiling and looking ahead; his long dark hair falls to his shoulders, a cue consistent with a probable Swamiji appearance.
