A photograph of a man seated on an ornate silver throne on a stage lit with blue light. The throne has a large arched backrest with floral and filigree carving and two silver lion figures at its sides; a silver trident-topped staff stands beside it. The seated man wears a saffron-red shawl draped over bare shoulders, a red-brown dhoti, and a long rudraksha mala with a gold pendant, with a vertical tilak on his forehead and long hair. A leopard-print cloth lies over the throne. Ornate carved temple-like pillars rise behind the stage. Appearance-based candidate present: Swamiji (probable), seated on the throne in a saffron shawl with rudraksha mala and long hair.
