A photograph taken indoors in dim light showing a seated figure in orange robes with long dark hair, sitting on an orange cushioned seat before a window with a white grill. The seated figure has rudraksha beads on the robe and extends both hands forward. Opposite, a standing older man in a white shirt and white cloth draped over his shoulder leans in with cupped hands extended toward the seated figure. A steel cup and a wooden rod rest on the orange platform in front of them. Probable Swamiji: the seated figure wears orange robes, rudraksha beads and long swept-back hair, consistent with the page's identification of Swamiji at this event.
