A photograph of a seated man in orange and gold robes and an orange turban with a red tilak on his forehead, eyes closed and smiling broadly, gesturing with his left hand while holding an open book on a wooden lectern. He wears a gold-coloured shawl and a heavy gold necklace with beads. Behind him a backdrop banner reads Bhagavad Gita (The Song of God) beside a painted chariot scene with two charioteers and horses. A tall brass oil lamp with a decorated stem stands to the right, with green plants around. Appearance-based label: Swamiji (probable), seated discourse speaker, with long dark hair and rudraksha-style gold beads visible.
