A man sits cross-legged in meditation with eyes closed on a cushion outdoors. He wears an orange saffron wrap draped over one shoulder and orange dhoti-style trousers, with a long dark rudraksha mala around his neck and a red tilak on his forehead. His hands rest in his lap in a meditative mudra. Behind him stands a dark stone Nandi bull statue draped with red and white garlands, set on an orange-red stepped platform with a yellow marigold garland on a pillar beside it. Palm trees and a stone naga-type sculpture appear in the background. Swamiji candidate: the man's appearance shows long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha mala, but his identity cannot be confirmed from appearance alone, so this is only an appearance-based candidate.
