A nighttime outdoor photograph of a seated figure with long dark swept-back hair, wearing a maroon and saffron-bordered dhoti-style garment, a bead rudraksha mala with ornamental gold pendants, and large earrings, smiling as attendants gather around. A man in a white shirt with a red shawl stands at left, a silver trident is visible at upper left, and a man in maroon and gold robes with a rudraksha mala stands behind the seated figure. On the right, men in white dhotis and white shirts with red garlands stand near a lit area. The seated figure's appearance is consistent with Swamiji (probable) based on the long hair, saffron-toned clothing and rudraksha mala, though this is uncertain. The setting appears to be a beach at night with dim lighting.
