A smiling man in an orange-red turban and bare-shouldered orange and saffron robe sits in a large brown leather throne-style chair with carved dark wood armrests. He wears a red bindi on his forehead, long beaded rudraksha-style mala necklaces, and a small headset microphone, and gestures with his right hand. Behind him, blurred devotees in white and red sit and stand, and a woman in white with a red sash is partly visible near a lit oil lamp. A carved wooden cobra-headed staff rests at the left edge. The visible cues of distinctive orange turban, ornate beaded mala and saffron robes support a probable Swamiji identification; the chair and seated setting are the throne-like presentation of a discourse.
