A smiling man sits on an ornate gilded throne with a tall arched back carved with floral and lion motifs. He wears a maroon-red turban with gold border and a jewelled ornament, a red-brown dhoti-style cloth with gold edging draped over his shoulder, and a long gold bead mala around his neck, plus gold armbands. A red bindi is on his forehead and white ash marks show on his arms. He sits on a tiger-striped cushion with red velvet side cushions, and a red steel cup rests beside him. Swamiji (probable) appears in person, seated on the throne with a lavalier microphone clipped near his face, marked by the turban, saffron-toned robes and rudraksha-style gold mala.
