A bearded man with long dreadlocked hair wrapped high on his head, with a small white crescent ornament at the crown and a red-orange tilak on his forehead, walks barefoot across a colourful striped mat. He wears a rust-orange shawl over a bare chest, a leopard-print waist cloth, a wide gold waistband, a large gold bead necklace with a pendant, a gold armlet and gold bangles, and orange dhoti-style drapery. His eyes are closed and he appears absorbed. Behind him, devotees in white dhotis and orange shawls stand with palms pressed together, and rows of red-handled carry bags sit on the floor. Swamiji (probable): the crown ornament, long dreadlocks, saffron-orange clothing and gold necklace are compatible with the page's Swamiji reference, so the figure is labelled as the probable Swamiji in person.
