Close photo of a man with long, swept-back dark hair, eyes lowered, wearing an orange-saffron shawl with gold border and layered ceremonial gold bead necklaces with rudraksha malas. A red tilak is visible on his forehead. Behind him, a second man in orange garments with a red mark on his forehead looks on, and orange flags hang in the background. The man appears to be a probable Swamiji (probable) based on the long hair, saffron clothing and gold-and-rudraksha necklaces, seen in person at a ceremonial gathering.
