Photograph of an orange-robed sannyasi with a long white beard and grey hair in a bun, bearing a white sacred ash marking with a red kumkum dot on the forehead, seated with eyes lowered. Beside him sits a person with dark hair wearing an orange turban and orange robes, facing away. Behind them stand other saffron-clad people, and a red and gold cushioned throne-like chair is visible. A rudraksha mala hangs at the chest. Two people are visible in the foreground and several more partially in the background. The candidate's appearance is consistent with the page's claim, with long swept-back hair, ash and kumkum markings, saffron clothing and rudraksha malas, but identity is only probable, so this is labelled Swamiji (probable) seated in person.
