A man seated on a carved wooden chair before a microphone stand, in a temple-like setting with garlands of red roses, orange and yellow marigolds draped behind him. He wears a leopard-print cloth over his chest, a red dhoti and long rudraksha malas, with a white horizontal tilak and red tilak on his forehead and a white painted design on his upper arm. Long dreadlocked hair is pinned up with a silver-crowned ornament. Behind him stand dark stone deity murti draped in red cloth and garlanded with yellow flowers, a silver chariot-style ornament at his left, and a brass pot in the foreground. The man is smiling and speaking. Appearance-based cues including the long locks, rudraksha malas, ornamental crown and ceremonial dress are consistent with the page's reference to Swamiji, so this is a probable match, set as in_person.
