He wears a rust-orange and maroon garment, layered gold and rudraksha-style necklaces, a white flower garland, bangles, and an orange-gold crown-like headpiece. Behind him a large heart-shaped decorative frame in red, green, blue and gold is surrounded by yellow, white, orange and purple flower garlands. Two golden lion figures flank the seat, and a trident-topped staff stands to the side. A partially visible hand at the left edge holds a microphone or camera. Probable Swamiji by appearance cues: long hair, crown, ornate gold jewellery and saffron-toned clothing, seated in the procession as the honoured figure.
