Photo of a bearded man seated on an ornate silver-and-red throne in a hall, wearing a rust-red draped garment, a long gold garland with a large gold pendant, a trident pendant, and red-beaded armlets, with a vermilion-and-vibhuti forehead mark. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair and ornate gold ceremonial necklaces fit the probable identity, though appearance is only partly clear, so this is an appearance-based candidate. He gestures toward a small wooden table holding a drum-like instrument and an electronic device. Seated in front, a woman in a cream-and-gold sari looks toward him, and a man in white with a red shawl sits among seated devotees behind him. Framed posters hang on the wall behind.
