Photograph of a shrine table covered in a yellow cloth, arranged for puja. Centre-left, a large framed photograph shows a smiling man with long dark hair, a red bindi and saffron-orange robes with a pale beaded necklace, one hand raised in blessing, set against a banyan root background; this portrait is a printed depiction, and its appearance matches the Swamiji (probable) cues of long hair, saffron clothing and beaded necklace. Beside it, a smaller black-and-white portrait in a silver frame wears a red and gold garland. In front, a folded rust-coloured shawl rests on the table, a pinned brooch on it, with white plumeria flowers, a small brass lamp holding a lit candle, a glass candle holder, a purple carved animal figure and white artificial flowers. No physical people are present.
