A photograph of a seated man in a golden ornate throne on a leopard-print cushion, flanked by golden lion sculptures. He wears a tall dark turban-like head covering, a red-orange shawl draped over his bare shoulder, and layered rudraksha malas, with a white tilak on his forehead; his eyes are closed. Hanging brass bells and oil lamps on chains with fairy lights surround the throne, and a brass lamp with flowers rests on a lion pedestal in front. Swamiji (probable): the seated figure's long swept hair under a turban, saffron-red garments, and rudraksha malas match the page's reference to Swamiji; the presence of a throne and ritual setting alone is insufficient.
