A close photograph of a man seated before an ornate gold-embossed throne backdrop. He wears a rust-red rudraksha-textured turban with a small gold ornament at its crown, a red bindi and white markings on his forehead, gold earrings, and a long multi-strand necklace of gold beads with dark rudraksha seeds and pearls. He wears an orange-red garment and holds a polished silver trident (trishul) upright beside him, smiling. Swamiji (probable): the swept-back hair, rust-red turban, orange clothing, rudraksha malas and ceremonial gold necklaces are consistent with the page's description of Paramahamsa Nithyananda.
