A man stands on an ornate gold throne decorated with bands of marigolds and white jasmine garlands in yellow, purple, green and red. He wears a white turban with a fan-shaped ornament, a red ornate sherwani-style coat with gold embroidery, white dhoti-style trousers, a gold pendant necklace and a beige shawl draped over his shoulders and arms. A large multi-coloured garland with white flowers and pink-centred blossoms hangs to his knees, and a floral offering sits at his feet. A small red bindi marks his forehead. Behind him hang dark maroon curtains. The page identifies this as Swamiji, and the appearance cues of long hair, ornate gold-trimmed clothing and a shawl are consistent with that label. Lion-shaped gold armrests and a silver ceremonial staff flank the throne. The photo credit reads 'Nithyananda Paramashivam' in the lower right corner.
