A man stands in a temple-like setting holding a silver staff topped with a carved finial, raising his right hand in a blessing gesture while smiling. He wears an ornate gold crown with a radiant sunburst design, a red-brown cloth over his shoulder, layered gold necklaces, and pink and white flower garlands. A vertical sandalwood or vibhuti mark is on his forehead, and gold bangles adorn his arms. Garlands of white flowers hang on either side of the frame, and a blurred deity murti appears in the background. Swamiji (probable) appears through the crown, staff and ornamented clothing cues.
