The man on the left has long swept-back dark hair, a red-and-gold beaded necklace and a bare-shouldered orange wrap, and is smiling broadly; he appears to be Swamiji (probable), with long swept-back hair, a ceremonial gold necklace and saffron clothing.

The man on the left, with long swept-back black hair, a gold necklace and an orange wrap, presses his palms together in greeting and speaks into a handheld microphone. Beside him, an older bearded man in orange robes with a green-and-gold border sits with his feet on a white cushion. Behind them, several men in white dhotis and shirts sit on a colourful striped mat and carpet.

Behind them, rows of people in white and orange sit before orange drapes, with a tall gold pole and a silver ceremonial staff with a trident-like finial at right.
