A photograph of a seated man on an ornate silver throne (peetha) under a large decorative arch of multicoloured embroidered panels in red, green, yellow and blue studded with gold-toned discs. He wears an orange-red turban, an orange-red robe draped over one shoulder, and multiple rudraksha malas around his neck and arms. Yellow marigold garlands frame the throne, a leopard-print cloth lies on the seat, and a microphone stand stands beside him. Purple fabric and strings of white fairy lights hang behind the arch, and a purple canopy is visible at the top. The man smiles broadly with hands resting on his lap. Appearance-based candidate: Swamiji (probable) seated on the throne, with saffron-orange robe, turban and rudraksha malas as visible cues.
