A man in a rust-orange turban and orange-red robe sits on a red cushioned throne with ornate gold carved back panels. He raises his right arm holding a black smartphone to take a selfie, smiling broadly. He wears long garlands of pink and white flowers with gold-tinted rose accents over rudraksha mala beads, and a vertical tilak mark on his forehead. The appearance is consistent with the description of a swami in ceremonial dress, but the identity cannot be confirmed from appearance alone, so this is noted as uncertain.
