A photograph of a smiling man with long dark hair seated on an ornate gold throne with carved floral and figural relief. He wears a sleeveless light blue garment with a matching blue wrap over one shoulder, multiple strands of rudraksha beads and white beaded necklaces, beaded bracelets on his upper arms, and a white vertical tilak with a red bindi on his forehead. His hands are folded in his lap. A red-and-orange cushion edge and carved golden lion-head armrests frame the throne. The man's appearance, with long swept-back hair, rudraksha malas, ceremonial gold-and-bead ornaments and a throne, is consistent with the probable identity, so the seated figure is labeled Swamiji (probable) as an appearance-based candidate.
