A smiling man with long dark hair and a full beard sits on an ornate silver throne with red upholstery and carved lion-head armrests. He wears a rust-red cloth wrap over bare shoulders, a heavy gold multi-strand necklace with a large gold pendant, and a thin gold chain. White vibhuti lines and a red bindi mark his forehead. He holds a small silver trident in one hand. A black Yamaha amplifier sits on a wooden table in front of him, and a white hall with bright ceiling lights forms the background. Swamiji (probable) by appearance cues: long swept-back hair, rudraksha-style ornaments, ceremonial gold necklaces and saffron-red clothing on a throne, seated as a discourse speaker.
