A seated man with long dreadlocked hair and a full beard sits in a red-cushioned chair, pressing his palms together in a namaste gesture and smiling. He wears a saffron/orange sleeveless robe with a shawl draped over his shoulders, a long rudraksha-style bead mala and a gold necklace, and a small red-and-white forehead mark. A gold object rests near his feet. Behind him, a large hall is filled with seated audience members in white clothes and orange shawls, with orange-toned artwork on the walls and a red curtain at right. Some attendees hold papers, and a white cup sits on a small table in front. The seated man is a probable Swamiji candidate by his saffron robe, long matted hair, beads and gold necklace.
