A man seated cross-legged on an ornate gold-carved throne with a red cushioned seat against a red drape backdrop, speaking into a microphone on a stand. He wears a rust-orange unstitched wrap, a dense multi-strand rudraksha mala, a thin gold chain, and a white horizontal forehead band with a red vertical mark. His long dark hair is tied up and he has a full beard, smiling with hands clasped in his lap. A bare brass-tipped staff stands at left.
