A photograph of a man seated on a cream upholstered throne with an ornate dark carved backrest, speaking and gesturing with his right hand raised.

Gold-tipped side cushions and a silver staff with a bird finial stand beside the throne. Appearance-based candidate: Swamiji (probable), with long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha mala cues, seated on a throne while teaching.
