A man seated cross-legged on a white peetha throne draped with white jasmine garlands and red flower garlands speaks into a microphone on a stand. He wears a saffron-orange turban, an orange robe draped over his body and a large gold ceremonial necklace with a pendant, and has long dark hair. A white plastic-bottled water sits at the left edge of the stage. Behind him a banner reads the Tamil title for Salem Ashram inauguration with the date 27-07-2008 in black letters on a white backdrop. The swami candidate is in-person speaker on the stage; appearance cues are orange turban, long hair, saffron robe and gold necklace, so this is a probable Swamiji case.
