A photograph of a man seated on an ornate gold throne with carved lion armrests and a gold canopy with hanging tassels, in front of a projection screen. He wears a sleeveless saffron-orange robe, a long rudraksha mala draped across his chest, and a white vibhuti line with a red dot on his forehead. His long dark hair falls past his shoulders and his hands are pressed together in anjali mudra with eyes closed. A small lectern with an open book stands to his left, and water bottles and a red velvet cushion sit nearby. Probable Swamiji is seated in a teaching posture, with qualifying cues of long hair, saffron clothing, rudraksha mala and a throne, so he is identified here as the in-person subject.
