A man sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with a red cushioned seat and carved gold armrests, speaking into a microphone on a stand. He has a bare upper torso and wears a red-orange dhoti-style cloth draped over his shoulder, with a rudraksha mala and a gold necklace. Bunches of orange and pink flowers sit in vases beside the throne, and a flower arrangement rests on the base. Behind him hang tall pillar banners with orange fringe, blue bird emblems and red and yellow patterns, beside silver chandeliers and a painted backdrop of a temple scene. The man is the only person visible in the image, with a clear seated, teaching-stage pose. He is a plausible candidate for a person based on the saffron-red clothing, rudraksha mala and gold necklace, though the identification is only appearance-based.

A man in saffron-orange robes sits on an ornate gold throne with red velvet cushions, raising his right hand in blessing while his left hand holds a long rope-wrapped staff. He wears a white turban with a red mark on the forehead, a rudraksha mala, and a large gold pendant necklace. Lit brass oil lamps flank the throne, and a large painted deity figure stands at the right edge in orange and green garments. The Swamiji (probable) cues are saffron clothing, a turban and ceremonial gold necklace seated on a throne, so this is a candidate in person.
