Probable Swamiji (probable): the seated figure's long swept-back hair, ornate gold necklaces and rudraksha mala match the Paramahamsa Nithyananda appearance cues, and he is seated in an orange-gold chair before a gold-embossed throne. A third man in saffron-orange robes with a rudraksha mala and bald head smiles beside the throne. Behind them a red banner reads 'Satsang' in white script beside a gold arched backdrop.
