A photograph of a smiling man seated cross-legged on a red-and-patterned floor mat at a stage-like setting for an aushada preparation. He wears a dark patterned turban with a crescent ornament, a saffron-red robe, a multi-strand rudraksha mala and bead bracelets. Behind him stand two painted multi-armed deity murti figures in orange and red with gold ornaments, flanking a large orange wooden door. In front lie bowls of turmeric, kumkum and powders, a stone mortar, a silver-brocaded throne decorated with flower garlands, a silver pot, and small brass figures of animals and a deity. A microphone stand stands at right. Probable Swamiji is seated centrally, appearing in person, with the cues of the turban, rudraksha mala and saffron-red robe.
