A seated man in saffron-orange robes sits cross-legged on a red tiger-striped throne with gold trim. He wears a white vertical tilak with a red dot, a long rudraksha and bead mala with ceremonial gold necklace, and a white sacred cord across his chest. His right hand rests on a tall black trident, its base hung with small brass bells. Behind him is a large painted portrait of a man with a golden-orange turban. The appearance matches the a person cues of saffron clothing and rudraksha mala on a throne, so the candidate is physically present.
