Swamiji (probable) sits cross-legged on an orange-draped seat in a temple-like setting, eyes lowered, palms pressed together in anjali. He wears a saffron-orange robe with gold border, long swept-back black hair, a white vibhuti line on his forehead, and heavy gold chain necklaces with large gold pendants. Behind him are garlands of yellow and white flowers and a red and gold decorated shrine area. A bare-footed sitting posture on a yellow mat suggests satsang or darshan; a small electric heater stands at right.
