A seated man in a long rust-red robe sits on an ornate silver-and-red throne with eyes closed, wearing a heavy gold necklace of beads, a gold trident pendant, gold armbands, a long dark swept-back hair and a white vertical tilak on his forehead. He rests his hand on a wooden table holding a small drum and a black keyboard amplifier. Behind him, rows of seated devotees in white dhotis and red shawls listen, and a woman in a cream sari with gold border sits to his right. The setting is a bright hall with framed red posters on the wall. Appearance-based candidate: Swamiji (probable), seated on the throne with long swept-back hair, rust-red robe, gold garlands and trident pendant.
