A seated man with long dark hair, white and red tilak on his forehead, and white upper-arm bands wears saffron-orange robes draped over one shoulder. He wears multiple strands of rudraksha beads, a large gold necklace with ornate beads, and rudraksha bracelets. He sits cross-legged on a gold-framed throne carved with lion heads and scrollwork, holding a white cloth around a small metallic object and looking down at it.

The man's appearance with long hair, saffron clothing, rudraksha malas and gold ornaments is consistent with Swamiji (probable), seated in a ritual setting.2012-06-01 +1 copiesJune 01 20122012-06-01 +1 copiesJune 01 20122012-06-01 +1 copiesA seated man with long, dark, swept-back hair wears an orange-saffron cloth draped over his shoulders and bare torso, with dense rudraksha malas and ornate gold beaded necklaces, plus rudraksha bracelets on his wrists and upper arm.
