A bearded man with long dark hair and a white vertical tilak on his forehead sits on an ornate brown leather throne-style chair, wearing a rust-red shawl with multiple strands of heavy gold ceremonial necklaces, gold armlets and a gold waist belt. Swamiji (probable) is indicated by the long hair, ornate gold adornments and rudraksha-style ceremonial dress, and he is seated in the role of the presiding teacher. Behind him, a seated audience fills the hall, some in white with tilaks and others in plain clothes, with framed photographs on the wall and a wooden door in the background.
