A smiling bald man in a rust-red saffron-toned sannyasi robe with a gold-edged border stands outdoors with both arms raised overhead. He wears layered rudraksha mala beads across his chest, a small pendant, a red bindi and white urdhva-pundra tilak marks on his forehead, and hoop earrings. Behind him is a blurred rocky, grey-green landscape. The man's identity cannot be confirmed from appearance, so the page's association with a named guru is not treated as evidence.
