A seated man sits in meditation on an ornate silver throne on a dark stage, eyes closed and hands resting on his knees. He is bare-chested with a saffron-orange cloth draped around his waist and legs, wearing rudraksha malas across his chest, arms and waist, plus a gold-toned ceremonial necklace and a red tilak on his forehead; his long hair is tied up. Silver lion figures flank the throne, and a silver trident stands to his left against a carved silver backrest. The page identifies the photo as Swamiji at a December 2017 event, but the figure's appearance shows several qualifying cues (long hair, saffron clothing, rudraksha malas, ceremonial gold necklace), so he is described as Swamiji (probable) seated in meditation on the throne.
