A smiling man with eyes closed sits before an ornate silver repoussé backdrop. He wears a high crown of rudraksha beads with a crescent moon ornament, white horizontal tilak lines and a red-and-white third-eye mark on his forehead, and a long braided beard and locks. A gold chain necklace hangs at his neck, and he wears a red-orange garment with a leopard-print wrap draped over one shoulder. His right hand rests on his chest and a red thread is tied on his wrist. Swamiji (probable): the crown, crescent, rudraksha crown, long locks and ceremonial gold necklace suggest the presentation of the Paramahamsa Nithyananda figure; he sits as a devotee-facing teacher during an event photograph.
