Behind him stands a bald man in orange robes with a rudraksha mala, and to the right a seated man in orange robes with a mala holds a notebook. At left, an elderly man in white clothes sits on a chair. The backdrop bears a red-and-orange lotus emblem and large red Kannada script reading an inaugural event heading. The seated figure's long swept-back hair, turban and rudraksha malas are probable cues for Swamiji, and he is the central presenter reading at the event. Five physical people are visible in total.
