A man seated cross-legged on a tiger-skin-draped golden throne beside a golden Nandi bull figure, in front of a large carved and painted deity murti of a multi-armed Shiva-form figure with a trident-like raised arm. He wears a rust-orange shawl and dhoti, an orange turban with a white-and-gold ornament, a rudraksha-style mala, gold armbands, and a pink-and-white flower garland. He is smiling, with a microphone stand in front of him. Flanking the scene are golden trident, potted plants, large clay pots, and hanging lanterns against red drapes. Swamiji (probable): a bearded figure in an orange turban and saffron-orange robes with gold armbands and mala, seated on a tiger-skin throne before a deity backdrop.
