A photograph of a seated man on a stage smiling while holding up a small red-and-silver book with a printed cover, facing the audience. He wears a tall piled black hair crown adorned with silver crescent and bird ornaments, a red-orange shawl over a leopard-print garment, a rudraksha mala with large beads, gold necklace, gold bangles and gold earrings, and a red bindi. A silver staff stands at left and a microphone stand is at right against a dark red curtain and a blue-lit rock backdrop. The man has long swept-back hair and ceremonial gold and rudraksha adornments in the appearance-based candidate profile, so this is a probable depiction of Swamiji (probable) holding a book at a satsang-style event.
