A photograph of a smiling man seated before an ornate gold repoussé backdrop with a warm orange cloth at right. He wears a tiger-striped wrap over his shoulder, a long mala of rudraksha beads and white skull-shaped beads with a large dark pendant, and has a sandalwood tilak with a red dot on his forehead. His arms are folded. Swamiji (probable) by appearance cues: long swept-back hair, ornate gold-backed seat, and distinctive rudraksha and skull-bead mala with tiger-striped wrap, shown as a seated teacher in satsang.
