A photograph of a bare-chested man reclining against an orange-brown cushion before an ornate gold-embossed backdrop with carved cherubs and floral relief. He wears a large black dreadlocked turban, white vertical tilak on his forehead, a rudraksha mala of brown beads across his chest, a thin gold chain, and an orange-red thread bracelet on his raised wrist. He smiles and raises one hand in greeting. Swamiji (probable): long dreadlocked hair wound into a turban, rudraksha mala and ceremonial gold chain, seated as a teacher figure in a throne-like setting. The page links this image to a May 2022 post about Swamiji's samadhi state.
