A man seated on an ornate gold throne with carved scrollwork and red cushions, speaking into a microphone on a stand. He wears a rust-red robe, a rudraksha-style gold necklace with a large pendant, a long layered gold chain, bangles, and a garland of pink and white flowers. A white tilak with a red dot marks his forehead, and a white cup sits on a gold-legged side table beside him. Behind him are gold deity figures and a red curtain with a blue and gold panel. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back dark hair, saffron-red ceremonial clothing, ornate gold necklaces and a garland, seated on a throne as the speaker.
