A photograph of a bearded man with long swept-back dark hair seated on an ornate silver throne with a red velvet cushion, a sun motif carved on the backrest. He wears a rust-orange saffron robe draped over one shoulder, a long rudraksha mala around his neck, a gold pendant necklace and a tilak on his forehead. He holds a golden trident-topped ceremonial staff in one hand and gestures outward with the other, eyes closed. Around him seated devotees in white and orange shawls face the throne; a woman in a white and gold sari sits at left and a man in white with an orange shawl sits behind. Pink walls, framed posters and a red exit sign are visible in the background. Swamiji (probable): the figure is the central seated figure with long hair, saffron robes, rudraksha mala and gold necklace, seated on a throne in the role of teacher.
