A photograph of a seated man with closed eyes and a slight smile, sitting on an ornate white and red throne-like chair. He wears a rust-brown wrap with gold border, a thick gold necklace and gold chains, a red thread on the wrist, and a red tilak with white markings on his forehead; long dark hair falls past his shoulders and he holds a carved white ritual staff. Behind him, seated devotees in orange and white robes sit in a pink-walled hall with a fire extinguisher and a camera operator visible on the right. The man displays distinctive long hair, saffron-brown ceremonial clothing, and gold ornaments, so he is a probable Swamiji candidate present in person.
