A photograph of a man seated cross-legged on an ornate gilded throne with a large arched back carved in floral scrollwork. He wears a saffron-orange robe, a red-brown rudraksha mala, a long gold ceremonial necklace with a gold pendant, and a small red bindi, and he smiles while looking to his left. Red cushions support his sides. On a gold-patterned low table before him are two small yogurt-style cups, steel bowls, a spoon and a small dark object. The setting is a stage with a white backdrop and a patterned red cloth on the floor. Appearance-based label: Swamiji (probable), seated in person with long swept-back hair, saffron clothing, rudraksha mala and ceremonial gold necklace.
