A photograph of a man in an orange sannyasi robe with long swept-back dark hair, white forehead markings, and a gold necklace with a rudraksha mala, placing his right palm on the forehead of a smiling man with short brown hair who wears a white shirt and an orange shawl with a rudraksha mala. Both are seated in a plain white room beside a white wall-mounted air conditioner. A bald man in an orange robe stands partly visible at the right edge. The orange-robed man with long hair and gold necklace is a probable match for Swamiji (probable) in a blessing gesture, with the forehead blessing as the main action.
