A digitally composited graphic shows a smiling bare-chested man with long dark hair, white forehead markings and a dark tilak, holding a silver trident aloft. He wears a tiger-striped cloth draped over one shoulder and across the waist, with rudraksha beads on his arms, chest and waist, and a gold pendant necklace. Behind him is an ornate golden crown-like headdress and a golden deity murti with raised arms and trident-like emblems, set against a dark circular frame with glowing orange edges. Swamiji (probable): the man has long hair, a crown-like backdrop and rudraksha malas, a distinctive ceremonial appearance, but the image is a composite so his presence is treated as a depiction.
