A seated man in orange saffron robes sits cross-legged on an ornate gold-embossed throne with a deep red cushioned seat, speaking into a microphone on a stand. He wears a long rudraksha-style gold necklace with a pendant, a red bindi on his forehead, and a gold-bordered orange shawl draped over one shoulder. His hands rest open on his knees. Behind him are a golden repoussé backrest and woven bamboo-patterned panels with orange and white trim, decorated with garlands of yellow, green and red tassels. Swamiji (probable): long dark hair, saffron robes, ornate gold necklaces and a throne cue this as the teaching figure, seated in discourse.
