A seated man in an orange-saffron dhoti and shawl with maroon borders sits cross-legged on an ornate gold and red velvet throne with a red cushioned seat. He wears layered rudraksha malas, a red thread necklace with a small gold pendant, a large gold ceremonial necklace, and beaded armlets, with a red bindi on his forehead and long dark hair swept back. A microphone on a stand is in front of him and his right hand gestures mid-speech. The throne has carved gold scrollwork and a gold medallion at the top. Appearance-based identification of the teacher is probable (Swamiji (probable)), based on his long hair, saffron clothing, rudraksha malas and ceremonial gold necklace, seated in the teaching posture of a discourse.
