Indoor photo of a seated man in an orange robe with long dark hair, a tilak on his forehead, and a rudraksha mala, receiving a visitor. He sits on a raised white-draped seat with a cloth-covered tray of books, prayer cards and rudraksha beads beside him. A kneeling older woman in white with a grey plait and orange shawl holds up a small card toward him. A man in a pale green shirt with rudraksha beads stands at left, and a younger man in an orange shawl and white shirt stands behind. A brass lamp and a white-draped table appear in the background. The seated figure has distinctive long swept hair, orange robes and a mala, a combination consistent with the page's reference to a person, so this is an appearance-based probable candidate.

A tan cloth lies on the seat, and a wooden tray of fruit and small packets sits in the foreground. Wall-mounted air conditioners and a fan are visible. The figure's appearance shows several cues associated with the Swamiji name on the page, namely long swept-back hair, a rudraksha mala and a saffron-orange wrap, so this is a probable Swamiji in person; the seated devotees are described by role.2013-05-13 +1 copiesMarch 23 20082008-03-23March 12 20082008-03-12A seated man in orange robes with long dark hair and a rudraksha mala extends his hands toward an older man in a white shirt and white dhoti, who presses his palms together in greeting and holds a small blue card.
