A photograph of a smiling man seated on an ornate golden throne with a carved arched back. He wears long dark hair, a white horizontal forehead mark with a red bindi, and an orange-saffron cloth draped over his shoulder. Around his neck hang a white bead mala and a dark heart-shaped pendant, and dark rudraksha-style beads cover his arms and chest with a row of gold bell-shaped pieces hanging from the bead garland. His hands rest on his knees. Behind him a pink and purple draped backdrop and gold ornamentation fill the frame. Sole person visible in the scene. Swamiji (probable) is seated in front of a golden throne, wearing saffron cloth, long swept-back hair and ceremonial rudraksha and bead adornments.
