A photograph of a bearded man seated on an ornate gold throne with leopard-print cushions, in front of a large jewelled backrest of red, blue, green and orange velvet studded with sequins and stones. He wears a rust-brown turban with a blue gem ornament, a brown saffron-toned dhoti-style garment, a long garland of white and gold beads, multiple gold necklaces, gold armlets and bangles, and is smiling with one hand resting on the cushion. A microphone stands at right. Matching the page's Swamiji claim, the appearance shows a turban, ornate gold ceremonial jewellery and rich clothing, so this is a probable identification of Swamiji (probable) seated in person.
