A bearded man with long swept-back dark hair sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with a tiger-striped cloth draped over the seat and a red cushion beneath. He wears a rust-orange robe, a rudraksha mala, a large gold ceremonial necklace with a pendant, and a sacred vibhuti line on his forehead, and raises one hand in blessing while smiling. He is garlanded with white jasmine strands and purple orchids. Behind him are gilded carved lion figures, a deity murti, and a tiered decorative backdrop with red, green, yellow and purple tassels, with brass trident-topped stands on either side. The person is a single figure, and the presentation cues match the a person candidate.
