A smiling man seated on an ornate gold throne with a red velvet cushion, wearing a deep red-maroon turban with a red bindi, a sandalwood-and-white forehead mark, gold earrings and a microphone clip. He wears a rust-red wrap, a brown rudraksha mala, a gold ceremonial necklace with a lotus pendant, and multi-coloured flower garlands of pink and white blossoms with green-and-gold ribbon. Gold armlets and bangles are on his arms. He holds a silver staff topped with a small white bird figure, and green foliage stands behind him. Swamiji (probable): the appearance cues are the crown-like turban, rudraksha mala, ornate gold necklace and throne setting, and the page names him as present, so this is treated as an in-person candidate.
