A photograph of two men in conversation in front of a colourful garlanded backdrop with yellow, red and white flower strands. The seated figure on the left has long dark swept-back hair, a white vertical tilak on the forehead, a dark rudraksha mala with large beads around the neck, and a rust-orange wrap over the shoulders; he smiles with a hand raised to his cheek. Swamiji (probable) is indicated by the long swept-back hair, rudraksha mala and orange clothing. The younger man on the right wears a plain white shirt with a red lanyard and gestures with open hands while smiling. Behind them, several children in blue and white shirts with red scarves stand in the background, and a gold cloth is draped beside a red seat.

A seated man with long dark hair, a white and red forehead mark, an orange-brown wrap and a multi-strand rudraksha mala sits on a red cushioned seat, smiling as he reaches out to a younger man in a white striped polo shirt who raises his palm toward him. Behind them, a garlanded deity murti with a gold and red decorated backdrop and a red curtain are visible, with lamps glowing at lower right.
