A photograph of a bearded man seated in a procession setting, wearing a rust-orange turban with a jeweled ornament at the front, a matching orange-red shawl over bare shoulders, layered rudraksha malas and a heavy gold necklace with a large pendant, and a leopard-print lower garment. He holds a tall golden staff topped with a finial at right, and a golden bull figure with curved horns sits at left. Blurred devotees in white and saffron stand in the background of a hall with lavender walls. Swamiji (probable): the orange turban, rudraksha malas and ornate gold necklace fit the appearance-based cues, and he is seated in the procession as the honoured figure.
