A photograph on a beach shoreline where shallow surf washes over sand. A seated figure in a red-maroon robe, red turban and rudraksha mala sits on a gilded wooden bench with a leopard-print cushion, feet in the water, smiling. Around him stand several devotees: men in white dhotis with red sashes and rudraksha malas, a man in orange robes with a bald head, and a man in a red shawl. Others in white shirts with lanyards and a woman in a purple sari stand behind in a crowd, with trees and pale sky in the background. Probable Swamiji cues include the red turban, ornate ceremonial rudraksha garland and seated honoured position in a beach ritual setting.
