A seated man in a maroon-red sannyasi robe sits cross-legged with eyes closed on an ornate gold throne with red velvet cushions, holding a rudraksha mala in one hand and a brown-beaded mala draped over his shoulders. A gold cobra hood with a canopy sits behind the throne. A large bronze-toned relief of a multi-armed deity with a crown and snake motif is on the wall behind. Potted green plants flank the stage and a red carpet covers the platform. Probable Swamiji by appearance: long swept-back hair, rudraksha mala and ceremonial dress, though this is only a meditative appearance-based label, not a confirmed identity.
