A graphic slide titled GURU PURNIMA under a KAILASA OM Awards header, with red and black text on the left quoting a February 22, 2016 statement about needing a living Enlightened Being. On the right, a framed photo shows a seated man with a black turban adorned with a crescent, bare-chested with layered gold necklaces, bangles, a rudraksha-style mala, and a cream and gold waist cloth, seated on an ornate golden throne before a warm sepia backdrop with a deity figure. This is a confident appearance-based candidate for a person, depicted in a printed or screen image rather than physically present.

He holds one hand raised in blessing and sits in lotus posture on a red cushion. On the right, a text panel with red highlighted names reads about celebrating the Guru and honouring Ahimsa and Advaita.
