A standing man on a stage speaks into a handheld microphone. He wears a cream turban, a red silk sherwani-style tunic with gold embroidered borders and cuffs, a gold necklace, and a red patterned lower garment with gold stripes. A sheer gold-fringed shawl hangs from his shoulder. He stands barefoot on a grey stage edged with a blue skirt. Behind him is a large banner showing red fabric with rudraksha beads and a blue panel with partial white lettering. A small red tilak mark is on his forehead. No swami-specific cues are visible beyond attire, so identity is uncertain.2009-06-02June 02 20092009-06-02December 22 20092009-12-22A photograph of a man standing beside a red and gold throne in a decorated hall with white draped curtains, flower arrangements and a microphone stand.
