3. "Unsure", that person had doubt about her place in the world
The eyes are "searching"

4. It's a man, but he did do a lot of searching.

I read "Autobiography of A Yogi," when I was a young teenager. Even though, I'm an atheist, I still have feelings of peace and joy related to him and his book.

5. I remember him from reading his book in the late '60s.
I might still have it somewhere. I got into yoga and meditation at about that time, found it all very peaceful.

6. Wow, he looks a lot like an old photo of my grandmother
I wish I had a copy of it - it was from when she was in her 20's and was a teacher in NYC. Early 1900's.

So I guess the emotion would be mild shock.
