Outdoor photo of a man seated cross-legged in meditation on a low wooden platform within a circle of white stones and green patterned edging. He wears an orange-saffron robe, a rudraksha mala of dark beads, and a red tilak on his forehead, with eyes closed and hands resting on his knees. Beside him sits a small brass object and a folded magenta cloth on a straw mat. Behind him stands an orange-red stepped pedestal topped by a black stone Nandi bull draped with garlands of orange and purple flowers, and a tall object above. Dark stone statues stand on the left, with palms and green shrubs in the background. Probable Swamiji cues: long swept-back hair, saffron robe and rudraksha mala, with a meditative posture and orange garlands in the setting.
