A photograph of a seated figure on a leopard-print cushioned throne in front of deep red draped curtains, with a gold-topped staff and ornate gold rod at the left and a microphone at the right. The central figure wears a leopard-print headwrap with a silver crescent ornament, a rust-orange wrap and dhoti with gold borders, layered rudraksha malas, a silver pendant, gold bangles and beaded wrist bands. He sits cross-legged, barefoot, smiling with one hand raised in a gesture while the other rests open. The scene reads as a satsang or discourse setting.

He wears a leopard-print headband with a silver crescent ornament, a rust-orange robe, a leopard-print waist sash, multiple rudraksha malas and bracelets, and a silver pendant. A microphone stand is at right and a gold-topped staff with serpent carvings stands at left.
