A smiling man sits on a red-upholstered white ornate throne in front of red draped curtains, raising his right hand in a greeting gesture toward a microphone on a stand. He wears a large gold ceremonial crown, a saffron-orange robe, multiple gold necklaces, a white and pink flower garland, gold armbands and bangles, and a red tilak on his forehead. Gold-and-chain rigging hangs at the upper right of the stage. Appearance-based candidate: Swamiji (probable), seated in ceremonial regalia with a gold crown, saffron robe and garland, presiding as the speaker on a throne.
