He wears a deep red pleated turban with gold braid and a small crystal brooch, a red bindi on his forehead, and an orange saffron garment with gold-bordered red shawl. He has long dark hair, a small wireless headset microphone at his cheek, and wears heavy gold beaded necklaces and a gold bangle. Swamiji (probable): the appearance cues of long hair, ornate saffron clothing, a crown-like turban and gold ceremonial necklaces are present, and he is seated in the honoured position of a discourse.
