A seated figure with long dark hair and a red bindi wears a saffron-orange sleeveless robe and a gold chain with a large gold pendant. He is barefoot on a leopard-print mat, holding open a large white book with red markings and grey grid text, looking down and smiling. Behind him a framed poster shows a figure in orange seated in a meditation pose with raised hand, and a white sofa with a gold garland and a small blue pouch sits beside him. The swami-style presentation with orange robes and gold ornaments matches the a person candidate, though the face is not used for identification, so the appearance match is uncertain.
