A bearded man with long dark hair, a white forehead marking and a small red dot, laughs with eyes closed while seated on a throne-like cushioned seat. He wears a rust-orange wrap over bare shoulders, a rudraksha mala with golden beads, a gold armlet and red bangles, and a garland of pink and white flowers. Behind him hangs an ornate gold, green and blue embroidered textile, and a golden lion-form object sits at lower left. Probable Swamiji cues: long hair, saffron-orange wrap, rudraksha mala and ceremonial garland, seated as the central figure in a satsang setting.
