A close profile photograph of a bearded man with long dreadlocked hair wearing an orange-brown sannyasi robe and a long garland of pink and white flowers with yellow accents, a rudraksha-style mala visible at the chest. He leans forward looking down into a small ornate metal bowl held in his open palm, which holds a dark liquid. A blurred figure behind him in a green garment with a beaded mala and gold-toned ornaments is also present, with red and gold drapery in the background. The setting appears to be a ritual or satsang gathering.

A bright red-orange vertical mark is on his forehead and a red thread is tied on his wrist. Behind him are a gold ornate backdrop and a red throne-like seat. This appears to be a puja with an oil lamp offered before flowers. The man has distinctive long hair, rudraksha malas and saffron-orange clothing, so an appearance-based Swamiji (probable) label applies.2018-05-30January 09 20182018-01-09May 21 20182018-05-21 +1 copiesA photograph of a bare-chested man seated on a silver throne, his long dreadlocked hair decorated with leaves, marigold flowers and small orange-yellow fruits, with a rudraksha mala of beads draped over his shoulder and silver bracelets on his wrist.
