A seated person on a gold-upholstered throne smiles broadly while holding up a printed booklet cover. The person wears a rust-red turban, a red-brown robe, and multiple strands of red and white flower garlands with a gold-toned pendant. Gold bangles adorn the wrists, and a gold lion sculpture rests to the left. Behind them is a wall decorated with dense bands of yellow, red, orange and green marigold and rose garlands. The booklet cover shows a photo of a person in a red turban with raised hands and the words "Sarvajnapeetha" and "a person". Whether the seated person is a candidate for a person cannot be confirmed from appearance alone, so the identity remains unsure.
