A bearded man with long swept-back hair sits smiling on an ornate silver throne decorated with floral and scroll carvings and a leopard-print cushion. He wears a rust-orange turban with a crescent ornament and a small gold emblem, orange-saffron cloth draped over his shoulders, multiple layers of rudraksha malas around his neck, rudraksha bracelets on his upper arms and wrists, and a gold chain. A small silver side table stands beside him. Swamiji (probable): the long swept-back hair, ornate saffron clothing and rudraksha malas match cues for the Nithyananda Paramashivam candidate, seated on a throne in a ceremonial setting.
