A photograph of a man seated on an ornate gold throne with a carved cobra hood at the top, against red and purple draped curtains. He wears a rust-red robe over bare shoulders, rudraksha-style beaded malas and a gold necklace, gold armbands, and a white forehead mark. He holds a small object in one hand while speaking into a stand microphone, with a silver trishul standing to the left and green potted plants around the dais. A visible appearance-based candidate is seated, with long swept-back hair, ornate gold jewellery and red-and-gold ceremonial dress, so this is a probable Swamiji in person in the dais role of a discourse speaker: Swamiji (probable), seated speaker on a gold throne.
