A smiling man with a bindi and an orange-saffron cloth draped over one shoulder sits on an ornate carved wooden throne with brown leather cushions, a cobra-head carving on the armrest. He wears heavy beaded gold-toned necklaces and a small microphone at his mouth, gesturing with an open hand. Around him, seated devotees in orange and red shawls and white clothes smile and listen in a hall with gold patterned wall panels. Appearance-based candidate: Swamiji (probable), seated on the throne with long swept-back dark hair, saffron cloth, and gold beaded necklaces.
