A smiling man with long dark hair and a red tilak on his forehead stands in front of a large carved stone face at an ancient temple. He wears a flowing saffron-orange robe and a dark rudraksha mala, raises one hand in greeting and holds a wooden staff. Behind him, massive weathered sandstone faces with crowned headdresses and moss-stained blocks rise against a blue sky. Swamiji (probable) appears here: long swept-back hair, saffron robe and rudraksha mala are visible cues, and the page links this photo to the 2007 Cambodia yatra. One person is present.
