A photograph of a seated man on a throne-like seat decorated with multicoloured flower garlands in white, yellow, red, orange and purple. He wears a gold crown, a white flower garland with gold beads, and a pink and red shawl over his bare shoulder, and smiles. Two brass oil lamps with lit flames and bird-finial tops stand beside him, and a wooden box with carved gold panels sits in front. A dark blue curtain forms the background. Swamiji (probable): the crown, ornate gold-and-pink ceremonial clothing and flower garlands on the throne match the presentation of the Supreme Pontiff, seated for satsang.
