A photograph of a bearded man seated before ornate gold-toned carved throne panels, smiling and raising one hand in a blessing gesture. He wears a deep maroon turban with jewelled brooches and a bright blue-green ornament, a white tilak mark on the forehead, a multi-strand rudraksha mala with gold ornaments across the chest, and a gold earring. Behind him a golden figure of a deity holding a staff stands within the carved throne. Swamiji (probable) appears as the seated figure, a teacher receiving honour on a throne, based on the turban, rudraksha and gold adornments.
