A man seated cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with a large arched backrest carved with floral scrollwork and studded with round knobs. He sits with eyes closed in meditation, hands resting in his lap, wearing a rust-red draped garment over bare shoulders, a heavy gold necklace of beads and a large gold pendant, gold armbands, earrings and a white tripundra mark on the forehead. Long dark hair falls past his shoulders. A small flame and a glass vessel are at the lower left, and a striped cloth draped behind the throne. Swamiji (probable): the long hair, rudraksha-style gold ornamentation and ceremonial gold necklace match the cues for the named guru, seated on a throne in meditation.
