A man sits cross-legged on a low wooden platform with an orange cushion on a woven mat, dressed in an orange robe draped over one shoulder and a long strand of dark rudraksha beads. He has long dark hair swept back and a red tilak on his forehead, and his hands rest on his knees. Behind him stands a black stone Nandi bull draped in a garland of yellow, orange and purple marigolds, set on an orange-red pedestal, with grey stone statues and greenery blurred in the background. A brass kalasha sits on the paved ground at left, and pink floral rangoli designs decorate the stones. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, saffron robe and rudraksha mala cues match the page's reference to Swamiji at this event.
