A smiling man with long dark swept-back hair sits on an ornate gold throne with red cushions, wearing a saffron-orange shawl over an orange garment, with a rudraksha mala and a gold necklace. He plays a keyboard instrument with a stick in hand while a microphone stands beside him. Golden lion-head carvings flank the throne, and a garland of yellow, purple and red flowers hangs at right. Swamiji (probable): the saffron clothing, swept-back long hair, rudraksha mala and ceremonial gold necklace match the page's claim, though this identification rests on appearance alone.
