A bearded man in a reddish-brown robe and a long rudraksha-style mala sits on an ornate white-and-red throne in front of a golden shrine with a deity murti in a gold-and-yellow backdrop. He wears a pink and white flower garland, gold necklaces, and beaded bracelets on his arms. A tall golden trident stands to his left, brass oil lamps flank the throne, and potted plants and clay pots surround the seat. Appearance-based candidate: a person, seated in a ceremonial throne, bearing the qualifying cues of distinctive ornate clothing, rudraksha mala and ceremonial gold necklaces.
