A seated man in rust-red robes sits on an ornate gold throne with carved lion-head armrests and red cushions, against a deep red curtain. He wears a long pink-and-white garland, layered gold necklaces and bangles, and a white tilak on his forehead, and his hands are raised in greeting. Golden lion statues flank the throne, a trident stands at left, and a golden murti with a crescent-adorned headdress sits above. Tasseled decorations in red, green, yellow and pink hang behind the stage, and a microphone stands at right. Swamiji (probable) cues: long swept-back hair, saffron-red sannyasi robes, ceremonial gold necklaces and rudraksha-style adornment, seated as the discourse speaker on a throne.
