A photograph of a bearded man in a saffron-orange robe and matching orange turban with a small white flower ornament sits cross-legged on a large ornate gold throne with a carved cobra hood canopy. He wears a long rudraksha mala and a gold pendant, and a pink-and-white flower garland hangs across his chest. A small wooden side table holds a cup, and a microphone stand is at right. Behind him stands a large painted backdrop of a multi-armed deity holding ritual objects, flanked by golden columns with carved figures and a gold trident. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has long swept-back hair, a saffron turban, a rudraksha mala and gold ornaments, so he is labelled as the probable Swamiji on the throne.
