Outdoor photo on a stone-paved courtyard beside a white temple with red trim and arched niches. A bearded man in rust-red sannyasi robes, with long dreadlocked hair, a red tilak, a marigold garland and rudraksha beads, stands with his hands pressed together raised overhead in prayer. Orange petals lie scattered on the floor. To the left, a robed companion in rust-red holds a bag and a red-and-white patterned cloth, and a woman in a green and yellow sari carries a water bottle. At the right edge another robed figure holds a red embroidered cloth. Several people stand in the background near multi-storey buildings and trees.

He wears marigold and orange garlands over rudraksha beads, a gold pendant, rudraksha armlets, and a red-and-white tilak on his forehead. Behind him a woman in a white kurta with pink embroidery and red leggings holds a shoulder bag, and people sit on steps and a balcony of a red temple building. The scene resembles a temple devotional setting, with a probable identification of the central figure as Swamiji based on his saffron-orange robes, rudraksha malas, distinctive hair crown and ceremonial gold pendant, though this is an appearance-based label only.2018-03-28March 28 20182018-03-28March 28 20182018-03-28March 28 20182018-03-28 +1 copiesMarch 28 20182018-03-28March 28 20182018-03-28March 28 20182018-03-28Outdoor photo on a stone-paved walkway at a hillside temple complex with stone steps and red-railed terraces behind.
