A smiling man with long, swept-back dark hair sits on an ornate gold throne with carved lion-head armrests and a gold-framed backrest. He wears saffron-orange robes, a long rudraksha-style garland of gold-coloured beads, and gold armbands, with a red mark on his forehead. His feet rest on a red-cushioned gold footstool decorated with flowers. Behind him stand a banner with a smiling portrait in an orange shawl, a floral backdrop with a deity murti decorated with red and white flowers, and a gold-trimmed pillar with a red-topped vessel. The setting looks like a satsang hall. Visible text includes partial words on the banners.
