A photograph of a bearded man with eyes closed and a serene, smiling expression, wearing a saffron-orange turban adorned with a jewelled ornament and a small golden trident rising from it. He wears a saffron-orange shawl over bare shoulders, a heavy gold necklace and multiple rudraksha mala strands, with a red bindi on his forehead. A tall golden ceremonial staff stands at the right edge, and the blurred lilac background suggests a large hall with some people seated in the soft-focus lower left corner. The distinctive turban, saffron clothing, rudraksha malas and ceremonial gold cues are consistent with a person, seated in meditation during a gathering.
