A photograph of a seated man in saffron-orange robes with a shawl draped over one shoulder, sitting cross-legged on an orange cushion in an open courtyard. He has long dark hair swept back, a red tilak mark on his forehead, and a rudraksha mala around his neck. His hands rest in meditation posture on his knees. Beside him stands a brass kalasha/pot on a patterned ground of coloured powder. Behind him is a large black stone Nandi bull wearing an orange-and-beige garland, set on an orange pedestal, with a stone deity sculpture and red walls in the background. The man appears to be a probable Swamiji (probable) seated for meditation or puja, with cues of long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha beads.
