A photograph taken in a tiled corridor with pale blue walls and a doorway at right. In the centre, a smiling man in a saffron-orange robe and matching orange turban stands with palms pressed together in greeting, wearing a long dark beaded rudraksha mala and a gold pendant. Behind him, a bearded man in a white shirt and white dhoti stands beside an older bald man with white beard and glasses in a white shirt. Several children in colourful everyday clothes, including a green top and a pink floral dress, gather in the foreground looking toward the robed figure. Light green chairs and a table are visible at left. Swamiji (probable) is identified by the saffron robe, orange turban, long rudraksha mala and gold pendant, with the figure shown in person.
