A smiling bearded man with a vermilion forehead mark sits in front of a large colourful deity murti with a blue body and ornate jewelled decorations. He wears a maroon-brown robe, multiple strands of brown rudraksha beads, a gold pendant, and multi-strand garlands of white jasmine, red and yellow flowers, and red apples. He holds a silver staff topped with a carved serpent-head finial. Swamiji (probable): long dark hair and a distinctive rudraksha-mala presentation with ceremonial garlands match the page's identification, so this is an in-person appearance-based candidate seated beside the murti during a festival celebration.
