A smiling man with a tall dark wrapped turban sits on an ornate gold-trimmed brown leather throne with golden lion-head armrests. He wears a red-orange garment, multiple rudraksha mala necklaces and a gold pendant, and holds a dark snake in his hand. Swamiji (probable): the turban, rudraksha malas, orange clothing and gold adornments fit the candidate description; the throne alone does not confirm identity. Behind him, seated and standing audience members in colourful clothing fill a hall.
