A photograph of a man seated cross-legged on an orange cushion atop a low wooden platform outdoors, in a dusty courtyard with palm trees and an orange-painted structure at right. He wears a hot-pink dhoti and matching shawl, a long gold-beaded garland, and a red tilak on his forehead, with long dark hair swept back; his hands rest in his lap. Beside him on the mat sits a brass kalasha-style vessel. A garland of yellow and orange flowers hangs on the orange pedestal at right, and a dark stone deity murti stands in the background. Visible appearance cues include long swept-back hair, ornate gold necklace and saffron-pink ceremonial clothing, consistent with a probable Swamiji (probable) seated in meditation or satsang at the ashram. Only one physical person is present.
