A man in an orange saffron dhoti and orange shawl with long swept-back hair and gold-bead necklaces stands before an ornate golden throne draped with yellow, red, purple and white flower garlands. He is smiling and holding up a framed photograph or book. A golden umbrella hangs above the throne, a gold lion figure sits at the base, and a stage backdrop with tiled roof and balcony completes the setting. Swamiji (probable): the orange robes, long hair, gold necklaces and throne cues fit the page's description of Nithyananda Paramashivam, though the appearance is not fully certain.
