Photograph of a smiling man seated in front of an ornate golden throne with intricate repoussé carving. He wears an orange-saffron cloth draped over the shoulder with a gold-and-yellow border, a long necklace of large gold beads, a silver and bead pendant, and rudraksha armbands. He has long swept-back dark hair, a white horizontal tilak across the forehead with a red dot at the centre, and a small microphone clipped near his face. The appearance is consistent with the Swamiji (probable) candidate: long swept-back hair, saffron clothing, rudraksha adornments and gold necklaces, seated in a throne-like setting during a talk.
