A seated man in an orange-red turban and matching draped saffron-orange robe sits on an ornate white-and-red throne at the front of a hall with maroon drapes. A thick gold necklace hangs at his chest and a bead bracelet is on his wrist. Swamiji (probable) is labelled as a candidate by appearance, based on the swept-back long hair, saffron-orange robe, ornate gold necklace and turban cues, and he is seated in front of a seated audience of devotees in white and orange. Two silver trishula staffs stand beside the throne. A video camera on a tripod and a white pedestal fan are at left, and a large screen behind shows a portrait of a bearded saint in pink and blue. Around 25 seated devotees, mostly women in white and orange, face him.
