A man in a cream turban and saffron-orange dhoti wrap with layered rudraksha mala necklaces and rudraksha bracelets stands in a crowded hall, placing his right hand on the head of a man in glasses and a white shirt who bows with his hands folded. The turbaned man holds a yellow paper in his left hand and has a red bindi on his forehead. Several people stand behind, including a shaved-headed man in white and a man in orange at right. The turbaned figure bears distinctive saffron clothing, rudraksha malas and a crown-like turban, consistent with Swamiji (probable), shown giving a blessing.
