A photograph of a man seated cross-legged in meditation on a mat outdoors, eyes closed and hands resting in his lap. He wears a saffron-orange sannyasi robe draped over the shoulder and a long dark rudraksha mala around his neck, with a red-orange tilak on his forehead and long dark hair swept back. A brass kettle-shaped pot sits on the mat in front of him. Behind him, a second man in white clothes stands near a pile of burnt wood and ash on bare ground. The appearance of the seated man is consistent with the probable Swamiji description, given saffron robes, long swept-back hair and rudraksha mala.
