He has long white hair, a flowing white beard, white horizontal tilak marks and a red bindi on his forehead. He wears layered rudraksha and pale crystal malas and holds a pair of sunglasses in one hand while his other hand rests on his chest. Behind him a man in a white shirt and gold chain watches attentively, and a woman in the background wears gold earrings. The setting appears to be an indoor satsang. The man in orange shows the cues of a probable Swamiji (saffron robe, orange turban, long hair, rudraksha and crystal malas), so he is identified here as Swamiji (probable) seated and teaching.2012-05-08September 10 20062006-09-10
