A photograph of a seated man in an orange-saffron robe with his palms pressed together in namaste at his chest, eyes closed. He has long, dark, swept-back hair, a red tilak on his forehead, and wears a multicoloured garland of white flowers with red, green and pink ribbons, plus a gold ornate pendant necklace and a gold bangle. He sits in front of a large throne decorated with white jasmine-style flower arrangements, red floral accents and gold studs, with flower-covered cushions at the base. The setting appears to be a ceremonial stage. Probable Swamiji by appearance: long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and ceremonial gold necklace on a flower-decorated throne, seated in a reverential pose.
