A photograph of a seated man on a gilded throne decorated with a dense arched backdrop of multicoloured flower garlands in red, yellow, white, purple and green. He wears a gold-and-leopard-print sleeveless garment, layered gold necklaces, a white and red beaded waist band, and an orange dhoti, with a red bindi on his forehead. He holds a silver trident in his right hand and smiles. A gilded lion-face armrest is at the left edge, and the chairs are upholstered in yellow. Unclear whether this is the Swamiji candidate; the appearance cues (long hair, ornate gold and leopard clothing, trident, throne) are present, so this is an appearance-based candidate. Single person physically present.
