A photograph of a seated figure on a gold-framed throne-like seat, draped in a pink-and-gold garland and an orange shawl, wearing an orange saffron robe, a red-orange turban, a multi-strand rudraksha mala, and a white beaded necklace. Around him, several men in white shirts and white trousers stand close; some hold up flower garlands, one lifts a garland overhead, and one man in glasses stands at right. A black backdrop with strings of green leaves and flowers hangs behind. The figure is an appearance-based probable Swamiji candidate, identified by the saffron-and-turban attire, rudraksha mala and ornate garlanded presentation, in the company of devotees in white.
