A photograph of a bearded man seated on an ornate gold throne with carved gilded panels and a tiger-striped cloth draped over the seat. He wears a tall black turban-style headwrap with a silver crescent ornament, a white forehead marking, a deep red-brown sleeveless garment, and multiple layered garlands of rudraksha beads with orange beads and a large gold pendant. He raises his right hand in a blessing gesture while smiling. Only one person is visible. Swamiji (probable): the distinctive turban with crescent, rudraksha malas and gold pendant match the page's claim, so this is an in-person candidate.
