A photograph of a man with long dark hair and a red bindi sits cross-legged on a white-covered seat in front of a white throne with two round white bolsters. He wears an orange saffron robe over a red undergarment and a gold ceremonial necklace with a pendant, and he smiles while gesturing with his right hand toward an open book on his lap. Water bottles, an orange cloth and stacked books sit nearby, and a striped cloth covers the floor. The appearance-based label is Swamiji (probable), based on the long hair, saffron robe, gold necklace and seated position before a white throne.
