A photograph of a seated man in an ornate golden throne (peetha) with a carved gold arch backdrop and gold lion-shaped armrests over red velvet. He wears an orange-red turban, an orange-red robe with a gold-yellow shawl, a long multi-strand gold-beaded necklace with a central pendant, gold armbands and bangles, and sits cross-legged with hands folded on a tiger-striped cloth. A tall gold trident (trishul) stands to his right against dark red drapes. Lapel microphone visible. Appearance-based label: Swamiji (probable), based on the turban, saffron robes, gold necklaces and throne.
