A photograph of a man seated cross-legged on a white, flower-garlanded throne on a stage, speaking into a microphone. He wears an orange-saffron robe, an orange turban, and a long gold-coloured necklace with a pendant, and his hands are raised in a teaching gesture. Behind him a large backdrop shows a framed photograph of a figure in white against a blue background, with red and white garlands draping the throne. A small table with a white cloth, a water bottle and a microphone stand sit at left, and the stage has a red skirting. Overhead, a purple canopy covers the stage. The appearance-based candidate on the throne has long hair and saffron clothing with ornate adornment, consistent with a probable Swamiji, seen in person as a speaker.
