A photograph of a bearded man seated on an ornate carved wooden throne with a leopard-print cushion, raising one hand in a greeting or blessing while smiling. He wears a rust-orange dhoti and wrap, a pink and white flower garland, a long gold ceremonial necklace and a rudraksha-style mala, with orange bangles on his wrists and a white tilak on his forehead. A microphone stands before him, and a teacup sits on a small table at his side. Potted green plants surround the throne, with a red cloth and brass vessels behind, and colourful embroidered hangings on the wooden wall. The page identifies this as Swamiji, and his appearance with throne, saffron-toned clothing, long hair, mala and gold necklace is a probable match.
