Photograph of a seated figure in saffron-orange robes with long swept-back dark hair, a wooden staff across his lap, and a tilak on his forehead, receiving an elderly white-haired man in white clothes who bows and clasps his hands. Standing behind the seated figure, a shaved-headed monk in orange robes holds a small card, and another orange-clad attendant stands further back. To the right, a man in yellow shawl and white garments watches. A younger man in white with a rudraksha mala supports the elderly man by the shoulder. Flower offerings and fruit sit on a white-draped table in the foreground, and a red curtain hangs behind. Swamiji (probable) appears to be the seated figure, judged by long swept-back hair, saffron robes and staff.
