A photograph of a long-haired man in a maroon-red shawl and rudraksha mala with a gold pendant necklace, seated on a gold ornate throne with a tilak on his forehead, extending his right arm to touch the forehead of a man in a white shirt with a red-and-gold shawl who has his palms raised in reverence. A lit string of fairy lights hangs behind. Green foliage, a brass lamp tray with flowers, a golden staff and gold-adorned deity murti in the background suggest a ritual blessing setting. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has long swept-back hair, a maroon robe, rudraksha mala and gold necklaces, and the page identifies him as Swamiji; the appearance-based cues are distinctive, so the label is applied.
