A photograph of a single man standing on a stage under a white truss rig fitted with stage lights. He wears a rust-red draped garment with a leopard-print patterned sash across his chest and waist, a red-beaded bracelet on one wrist, and a white tilak on his forehead. His eyes are closed and his right hand is raised to his forehead in a gesture of contemplation. Warm amber stage lighting and a draped white canopy surround him. The man presents as Swamiji (probable) through his long dark hair, rudraksha-style beads and distinctive red-and-leopard-print ceremonial dress, and he stands alone on stage during the session.
