Photograph of a bearded man with long dark hair seated on an ornate silver-and-red throne, wearing a red-orange shawl wrapped over one shoulder and layered gold chain necklaces with a large gold pendant. A dark vertical mark is on his forehead. Blurred figures appear at the lower left edge. The Swamiji (probable) label applies: long swept-back hair, ornate gold necklaces and saffron-toned clothing indicate the presiding teacher, seated in a ceremonial setting.
