A smiling man with dark, swept-back hair and a red bindi sits cross-legged on a dark brown leather throne with carved wooden armrests. He wears an orange-red saffron shawl draped over his body, a gold necklace, a rudraksha-style mala, and gold and beaded bangles. He is seated in a large hall with a small microphone clipped near his face, and audience members are blurred in the foreground and background. Swamiji (probable): the saffron shawl, swept-back hair, ornate gold necklace and beaded bracelets on a throne match the page's Swamiji claim, so the appearance-based label applies to this in-person seated figure.
