A man seated on a red cushioned throne in front of an ornate gold-leaf backrest, speaking into a gooseneck microphone. He wears a rust-orange draped robe, rudraksha-style brown mala beads across the shoulders, a heavy gold bead necklace with a gold temple-shaped pendant, gold armlets and bangles, and a red bindi with a white forehead mark. Swamiji (probable): the long swept-back hair, ornate gold throne setting, orange robe, rudraksha malas and ceremonial gold necklace are consistent with the page's claim, so he is treated as a probable in-person candidate.
