A man with long dark hair and an orange saffron robe with a garland of white and gold beads sits smiling on an orange-upholstered armchair with a cushioned footstool at the bottom edge of the frame. Behind him stands a golden deity murti of a standing figure holding a trident and a kalasha-like object, next to a consort figure in a pink and green sari, decorated with yellow and red marigold garlands, and a central gilded shivalinga-style form wrapped in garlands. Brass oil lamps flank the shrine, a red-clad figure sits near the base, and palm leaves hang on the left. The man is an appearance-based probable Swamiji candidate: long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and a ceremonial bead garland, seated in a throne-like chair before the shrine.
