A man stands in profile with eyes closed and palms pressed together at chest level in prayer. He wears a rust-orange turban, long dark matted locks falling down his back, and a rudraksha bracelet and armband. Pink and white flower garlands and gold bell ornaments hang across his chest, with a gold belt and a gold waist ornament over brown-red dhoti cloth. Behind him, several women in orange and white saris stand near a table holding flowers and offering plates in an open pavilion with greenery outside. Swamiji (probable): the turban, long hair, saffron-toned clothing, rudraksha malas and ceremonial gold ornaments match the candidate's cues, and he stands in devotional posture within the ashram gathering.
