A photograph of a seated man on an ornate carved wooden throne with a deep red quilted back, framed by a white and red flower garland. He wears an orange-saffron turban, a saffron robe and a rudraksha mala, raises his right hand in a blessing gesture and holds a long yellow staff. Carved lion figures flank the throne, a microphone stands at left, and a green curtain forms the background. A red-cushioned footstool sits in front. A white caption at top right reads '23rd Chaturmasya, 25 years of age, July 13, 2003'. Swamiji (probable) is seated in person, identified by the saffron turban, saffron robe, rudraksha mala and staff.
