A photograph inside a decorated hall with a white and red tent canopy and striped pillars. A long-haired man in a rust-orange robe with a rudraksha-style gold bead necklace and gold armbands smiles and raises his right hand over a younger man in a white shirt and lavender top who bends forward with palms pressed together. Beside them, a red tray holds wrapped sweets and fruit. Other people in saffron and white clothing stand around, including a shaved-headed man in orange with a sacred thread and a man in white. Probable Swamiji appearance cues: long swept-back hair, saffron robe and ornate gold beads, giving blessing to a devotee.
