A photograph of a smiling man on the left wearing a rust-brown turban with a vibhuti mark on the forehead, a rust-brown wrap, and long braided rudraksha malas across his chest; his bare upper arm is visible. Beside him a bearded man in a white kurta wears an orange shawl with yellow and red borders and a red thread, touching his hand to his chest. Other men in striped shirts and orange shawls stand behind them against a gold-coloured backdrop. The left figure is an appearance-based probable Swamiji candidate, with the turban, long braids and rudraksha malas as the qualifying cues; the rest are devotees. Four physical people are visible.
