Dimly lit photo of a small shrine in a dark cave-like setting with reddish rock walls. At centre stands a printed cut-out portrait of a bearded man in an orange turban and orange robes with ornate necklaces, seated on a chair and raising one hand in blessing. In front on the left, a smaller framed printed photo shows a similar figure in orange. Brass or gold deity murti and small figurines sit on the ledge, with a small offering tray of flowers and fruit to the right. No physical people are visible. Probable Swamiji cues (orange turban, ornate necklaces, orange robes) appear only in printed portraits, so the candidate is a depiction.
