A seated man in orange sannyasi robes wrapped in a leopard-print shawl sits on a red and gold ornate throne, with a rudraksha mala hanging at his chest and a red tilak on his forehead. A kneeling man in a cream t-shirt and grey track pants, wearing glasses and a lanyard, raises his hand toward the seated figure's face. Behind them, a shaved-headed priest in an orange cloth stands near a red-brick wall with a pink banner. A leopard-print mat lies on the floor. The seated figure has long swept-back hair and ornate robes consistent with the Swamiji candidate cues, so this is a probable Swamiji (probable) in an outdoor satsang setting.
