A seated man in an ornate red-and-gold setting sits on a red velvet throne with tiger-stripe upholstery in front of a large gilded backrest. He wears a dark red-orange robe draped over one shoulder, with a leopard-print waistband, and a long rudraksha mala of brown beads hangs to his waist. His forehead bears white and red tilak marks and he wears a gold earring. Behind him stand brass oil lamps with lit flames and a gold lion-shaped armrest is visible at the right edge. Swamiji (probable): the long swept-back hair, saffron-orange robe and rudraksha mala are consistent with the page's identification of Swamiji at this satsang event.

He wears a long string of gold-bead ceremonial necklaces over the orange shawl, a white horizontal tilak with a red bindi on his forehead, and a gold hoop earring. His dark hair is swept back.
