A seated man in a sky-blue sleeveless tunic and matching draped shawl sits on an ornate gold-upholstered throne against a richly embossed gold backdrop. He wears layered rudraksha malas, a pearl necklace, rudraksha bracelets and armlets, a red bindi and white vibhuti marks on his forehead, and raises his right palm in a blessing gesture. Partially visible heads of two people are at the lower edges of the frame, and a microphone rests near the chair arm. Swamiji (probable) by appearance cues: long swept-back hair, rudraksha malas and a distinctive ceremonial pearl necklace, seated on a throne.
