A photograph of a seated man on an ornate gold throne with red tiger-striped cushions, backed by a floral arrangement of yellow marigolds and purple blooms. He wears a cream turban with a red bindi, a brown and maroon embroidered sherwani with gold trim, a heavy gold necklace and a cream shawl draped over one arm, with green striped lower garments. He sits cross-legged with one hand raised to his cheek and smiles. Appearance-based candidate: Swamiji (probable), shown in person on the throne by his distinctive long hair, ornate gold-and-embroidered attire, layered gold necklaces and throne seating.
