A photograph of a long-haired man seated on a red throne-like chair with a red tiger-stripe cushion, wearing a leopard-print top, layered rudraksha mala necklaces and armlets, and draped in orange cloth. He has a red tilak on his forehead, smiles and gestures with one hand. A silver trident stands beside him, and gold ornate decoration and maroon curtains frame the stage. The appearance is consistent with the Swamiji candidate, so the identification is probable from his long swept-back hair, rudraksha malas and saffron-orange clothing.
