A photograph of a seated figure on an ornate gold-and-red throne, wearing an orange-red turban and orange robes with long gold bead necklaces. He has long dark hair and gestures with a raised index finger while speaking to a man seated beside him. That man wears a white short-sleeved shirt, a small red thread on his wrist, and has a pen in his shirt pocket. Several other men in white and cream shirts sit or stand in the background, and an elderly man is partly visible at the lower left. The orange-robed figure is an appearance-based probable Swamiji candidate, identified by long hair, a turban, saffron robes and ceremonial gold beads on a throne.
