A smiling man sits on an ornate silver-and-white throne with carved lion-head armrests, hands folded in his lap. He wears a deep maroon turban with a silver ornament and a white feather, a maroon robe, a white shawl draped over the shoulders, and a long gold ceremonial necklace with a large gold pendant. Behind him are arches of red and yellow flower garlands and purple-lit pillars, with a small deity murti visible on the right. A silver lectern stands at the right edge. The man is one person; he is the appearance-based candidate, showing a turban, ornate gold necklaces and saffron-toned robes, consistent with the page's Swamiji reference, and is labeled Swamiji (probable).
