A photograph of a person seated on a large white cushioned throne-style chair on a stage, wearing a sleeveless saffron-orange robe and a long rudraksha mala with a ceremonial look. The person has long, swept-back dark hair and is reading printed sheets of paper held in both hands, head bent downward. Cylindrical gold-patterned bolsters rest on the lap and beside the arms of the chair. In front, a microphone stand rises from the right, and a dark metal vase holds white flowers at lower left. The background is a plain black curtain. Appearance cues include long swept hair, saffron clothing and a rudraksha mala, so this is a person seated in a discourse setting.

He wears a red bindi, holds a folded paper in one hand, and rests his other hand on his knee, looking off to the side while a gooseneck microphone stands beside him.

Other cushions and a flower arrangement fill the stage.2009-07-19
