A man with long dark hair and a short beard, wearing a saffron-orange shawl over bare shoulders and a white horizontal forehead mark, sits smiling and laughing in front of a microphone on an ornate silver throne with a leopard-print seat cushion. A silver pillar and red velvet curtain are behind him, and a small lit lamp sits on a silver side table. Swamiji (probable): the long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and ceremonial throne fit the page's description of Nithyananda Paramashivam at a satsang discourse, so this is an in-person candidate, though his face is not used for identification.
