A seated man in orange saffron garments and a dark red-brown shawl sits cross-legged on an ornate red velvet throne with gold lion-carved armrests, a microphone on a stand in front of him. He has long dark hair swept back, a red bindi, a red thread and gold pendant with a rudraksha mala and gold necklace, and beaded bangles on his arms. His right hand is raised in an explanatory gesture while he speaks. A brass oil lamp with a lit flame stands at right against orange and red draped cloth. Swamiji (probable): the long swept-back hair, saffron clothing, rudraksha mala and ceremonial gold necklace match the page's identification, though appearance alone is not conclusive.
