A man seated on an ornate gold-and-red throne holds a handheld microphone and reads from a small paper. He wears an orange saffron robe draped over one shoulder, a long rudraksha mala reaching his waist, and a red bindi on his forehead, with eyes lowered. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, saffron robe and rudraksha mala on a throne, consistent with the page's reference to Swamiji. Lit oil lamps and orange flowers sit on the golden side tables, and the head of one listener is visible in the lower left foreground.
