A man seated on an ornate cream-upholstered throne with a dark carved wooden back, in front of a grey banner with large glittering gold letters reading "Sutra" and a yellow figure in a standing yoga pose. He wears a peach-coloured turban with a red bindi, black draped robes with pink floral border trim, and a heavy gold bead mala around his neck. His hands are pressed together in anjali mudra with eyes closed, and a microphone stand is positioned before him. A photo of a single person; the swami appearance cues (turban, black robes, gold mala) are consistent with the page's Swamiji reference, so this is an appearance-based probable identification.
