Outdoor photo beneath a tree canopy. A man in a rust-orange cloth wrap, bare-chested, leans his head against a thin tree trunk with eyes closed. He wears a long rudraksha mala with large gold-coloured beads and a silver pendant, plus a gold earring and a white horizontal forehead mark. His hair is long and swept back. Thick aerial roots and blurred green foliage surround him. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, rudraksha mala with gold beads and ornate ceremonial jewellery, saffron-orange clothing, an in-person candidate.
