A seated figure on a plush maroon throne before a deep red velvet curtain smiles toward a bald man in white who bows low, placing his head near the seated person's hands. The seated figure wears saffron-orange robes, a saffron shawl draped over the shoulders, a dark red-orange rudraksha mala with gold-toned bead necklaces, long swept-back dark hair, and a red bindi. On the right, a standing man with greying hair wears a white dhoti with a gold border and a rudraksha mala. Swamiji (probable) appears as the seated figure with long hair, saffron robes and ornate gold-bead necklaces, seated on the throne while receiving the devotee's obeisance.

A photograph in a red-draped hall: a long-haired figure in orange robes, a red shawl and a gold-bead necklace with rudraksha-style beads sits on a red velvet throne, smiling with eyes lowered, while a man in white with a red shawl bows forward toward his lap. A second man in white dhoti and shawl, with a rudraksha mala and a red-and-gold trim, stands at right adjusting red fabric. Dark red velvet drapery forms the background. The seated figure is a probable Swamiji by appearance cues: swept-back long hair, saffron-orange robes and ornate gold beads, with a bindi.
