A photo of a man seated cross-legged on a raised seat, speaking into a handheld microphone with his free hand gesturing, at an indoor gathering. He has long dark hair, a full beard and a vermilion mark on his forehead, and wears an orange-red saffron-toned wrap over bare shoulders with a matching orange cloth on his lower body. Beside him a large golden bull statue (nandi) with curved horns fills the lower left. Behind him a seated audience in white, saffron and colourful saris fills the room, and a pale pink draped backdrop hangs behind the stage. A partially visible person sits in the lower left foreground near the statue. Swamiji (probable): the long swept-back hair, saffron wrap and ritual setting match the candidate, and the appearance is consistent with the page's claim.
