A photograph of a man seated on an ornate gold throne with a tall arched back, framed by a garland of red, white, yellow and green flowers. He wears an orange saffron dhoti and shawl, a long multi-strand rudraksha-style mala necklace with a large gold pendant, gold bangles on both upper arms, and a red bindi; long dark hair falls past his shoulders. His hands rest folded in his lap, and an orange cloth with a jewelled ornament lies on the armrest beside him. A silver staff leans against the throne, and a dark stone wall forms the background. The appearance-based cues of long hair, saffron clothing, ornate gold jewellery and rudraksha-style mala match the page's claim, so this is a probable Swamiji seated in person on his throne.
