A photograph of an open grassy field with scrubby trees and a wire fence behind it. A long-haired figure in a saffron-orange garment and gold-edged shawl stands in the foreground holding a metal trident-tipped staff, facing left. Beside them an older man with white hair wears white ritual clothes and a bangle, and at the right edge a partly visible man in white clothes and sandals stands with his arms folded. The scene suggests a site inspection on bare land, with the person in saffron carrying a trident. The long-haired figure in saffron with a trident is a probable match for the Swamiji depiction, based on hair, saffron clothing and trident cues.
