A photograph of a man standing alone among ruined stone temple walls at an overgrown site, with a large tree trunk with aerial roots behind him. He wears a flowing saffron-orange cloth draped over one shoulder and a long necklace of brown rudraksha beads. His hair is long and swept back, and he has a red bindi on his forehead. He holds a wooden staff in one hand and looks upward thoughtfully. Carved stone reliefs and scattered blocks lie around him on a dirt path. Swamiji (probable) appears as this person, based on the long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha mala, and is shown in person at the temple ruins.
