A smiling man with long dark hair sits at a wooden desk with a beige CRT computer monitor and keyboard, using a mouse. He wears a saffron-orange robe and a small red bindi on his forehead. Behind him hangs a large framed painting of a blue-skinned figure with a glowing face and many outstretched arms against a starry cosmic background with red crystal-like shapes. A floral maroon tablecloth covers the desk, with a globe and a wall clock visible at left. The setting is a bright, simple office room with white walls and a black leather chair. Swamiji (probable): the long hair, saffron robe and red bindi match the page's Swamiji reference, though this is an appearance-based label.
