A seated man in saffron-orange robes sits on a cream upholstered throne-like chair, smiling and holding two long wooden swords or staves across his lap. He wears a long garland of red and yellow-striped flowers, a gold beaded necklace, and a red bindi. His long dark hair is swept back. A man at left in white dhoti-style clothing with an orange shawl holds a silver trident, and another man in a yellow shawl stands behind the throne. A man in a light blue shirt raises an arm in the right foreground, while a head is partly visible at the bottom. Behind them, a pink and white backdrop bears NYF and Nithyananda Dhyanapeetam logos. The swami candidate's appearance matches several cues including long swept hair, saffron clothing and ornate garlands, so this is a person in a ceremonial seated role.
