A man seated cross-legged on a gold-and-red cushioned throne before gold drapery, eyes closed in meditation. He wears a dark turban with a white crescent-moon ornament and white forehead markings with a red bindi, an orange-red robe, and a heavy layered gold necklace with a bird pendant and rudraksha-style beads. He holds a bundle of green leaves in one hand and a white ceremonial whisk in the other. Flanking the throne are two gold statues of goddesses: the left holds a lotus-like object raised, the right plays a veena. A gold plate with a small lamp sits at lower left and peacock feathers lie near the base. Desc is probable Swamiji by appearance cues: turban, orange robe, ornate gold necklace and mala-style beads, seated on a throne.
