A photograph of a smiling man with long dark hair, wearing an orange saffron robe, a red and white flower garland and a long rudraksha mala, with a red bindi on his forehead. He stands under a corrugated metal roof with scaffolding, gesturing with one hand toward a crowd, while a flower-decorated palanquin with a gold finial and marigold and white garlands sits behind him. Foreground figures are partly visible at the edges. Swamiji (probable) is identified by the long hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha mala; he is shown in person addressing devotees during a procession-style event.
