A smiling man in an orange-saffron dhoti and shawl, with a red and gold headband, rudraksha beaded mala and white ceremonial necklace, stands beside a seated-height gilded ornate golden backrest. Beside him an older man in a white shirt and glasses holds his hands, and several men stand behind them, including one in a blue shirt with glasses. A bright orange cloth is draped over a chair edge at right, and a hand holds a mobile phone in the lower right foreground. The appearance of the man in saffron matches the Swamiji (probable) description, with long hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha mala cues, while the setting resembles a temple or ashram hall with marble walls.
