Photograph of a seated man in a red garment with a long white and red flower garland, a gold necklace, rudraksha beads and a red bindi, smiling and placing his hand on the head of a kneeling older man in a white shirt with an orange shawl. The seated man has long swept-back dark hair and holds a gold-tipped ceremonial staff. Background shows maroon velvet drapery and a gold carved chair edge. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure has long swept-back hair, rudraksha malas, ceremonial gold jewellery and a red garment, and is blessing a devotee in a traditional ritual setting. The kneeling man receives the blessing.

A man with long swept-back hair, a small red tilak on his forehead, a gold necklace of large ornaments and a red-orange shawl sits on a red cushioned seat and reaches out to touch the forehead of a man in a white shirt and red-orange cloth wrap.
