A seated man in an orange saffron robe and a multicoloured turban sits cross-legged on a red-cushioned throne framed by a large ornate gold arch. The arch is decorated with yellow and red marigold and rose garlands and green foliage. He wears a long orange-beaded rudraksha-style mala and a red bindi, with his hands resting in his lap and bare feet visible. Golden ornate armrest panels flank the throne against an orange backdrop with partial banner lettering, including the word Dasara and the word Mother. The setting suggests a formal dais at a Dasara celebration. Probable Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, saffron robe, rudraksha mala and a multicoloured turban mark him as the seated teacher on the throne.
