A seated man in a rust-brown dhoti and matching shawl sits on an ornate gold throne carved with arches and flanked by two golden lion sculptures. He wears a long pink and white flower garland, a multi-strand gold necklace, gold bangles and a red bindi, and holds his hands together in his lap. Colourful tassels hang from the top corners of the dais, and red and tiger-striped cushions cover the seat. Swamiji (probable): the long swept-back hair, saffron-brown clothing, rudraksha-style ceremonial gold necklaces and throne seating fit the appearance cues for Paramahamsa Nithyananda, presented as the seated guru at a satsang-style setting.
