A photograph of a man descending a marble staircase with an iron railing, palms pressed together in namaste and eyes closed in a smile. He wears a white dhoti and shawl with wide gold-zari borders, a rudraksha mala and a large gold pendant, with a sandalwood and red tilak on his forehead and long dark hair.
