A photograph of a smiling bearded man seated on an ornate silver throne with carved floral and scrolled backrest, flanked by silver lion-form armrests and leopard-print cushions. He wears a rust-red turban decorated with gold and white ornaments, an orange-red robe, rudraksha malas across his chest and arms, a gold necklace, and a long garland of yellow and white flowers with green leaves. His palms are raised in blessing, and a microphone stand is at right. On the left a silver side table holds brass vessels and an oil lamp. Orange and gold embroidered panels frame the throne. Appearance-based cues including the turban, rudraksha malas, gold necklace and ceremonial throne are consistent with the page's reference to Swamiji, so this is a probable identification in person.
