A seated man with a tall dark topknot wound high on his head and a white vertical forehead mark presses his palms together in namaste while smiling. He is bare-chested and wears multiple strands of rudraksha mala beads across his chest, a gold bangle and armlet, and a tiger-striped lower cloth. He sits on an ornate gold throne with carved scrollwork, in front of a gold-patterned backdrop with a carved gold crest at the top. Swamiji (probable): the long swept-back hair, ornate gold armlet and jewellery, and rudraksha malas match the cues for the Nithyananda Paramashivam candidate, seated in a presidential throne setting.
