A photo of a Yoga Sutras discourse on a stage. A seated speaker in a blue dhoti-style wrap and a dark rudraksha mala sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne, arms spread wide while speaking into a microphone. A red banner reading Yoga Sutras with a yoga figure hangs behind him over blue drapes, with orange and red flower arrangements and water bottles on side tables. In the foreground, a large audience of about twenty seated people in white and yellow clothes, some with shaved heads, face the stage with their backs to the camera. The speaker is an appearance-based probable Swamiji candidate: long swept-back hair, a rudraksha mala and a ceremonial throne setting.
