A photograph of a man seated in a white ornate chair on a stage, eyes closed and smiling, hands clasped in his lap. He wears a black-and-white patterned turban with long dark hair at the crown, a rust-red robe, multiple rudraksha malas across his chest and arms, and a gold chain. A microphone stands beside him. Behind him are painted figures on orange panels and a large orange lattice wall. In front are a silver kalasha-style vessel, a small brass deity figure with a lamp, a stone mortar with yellow and red powders, a bowl of lemons or citrus, and green leaves, consistent with an aushada preparation setting. Swamiji (probable): the seated man wears the long swept-back hair, turban, rudraksha malas and saffron-red robe.
