A seated man in a maroon robe and maroon turban sits on an ornate gold throne with a golden hooded cobra canopy against a deep red curtain. He wears a pink and white flower garland, a gold pendant necklace and rudraksha beads, and raises one hand in a gesture while speaking into a microphone on a stand. A brass trident stands to the left, a brass kalasha-style vessel sits in the foreground, and a white cup rests on a small side table. Appearance-based candidate: a person, seated on a peetha and speaking as a discourse.
