A man seated on an ornate silver-and-red throne with carved lion-head armrests speaks while gesturing with his right hand, holding a small object in his left. He wears a saffron-orange shawl over reddish-brown robes, a long gold necklace and a rudraksha mala, with a white tilak on his forehead and long swept-back hair. Behind him, a red-and-white backdrop and blurred seated devotees in white and red shawls fill the hall; to the right, a brass oil lamp and small offering vessel stand on a side table. A distinctive figure with long hair, saffron shawl and ornate gold adornments, consistent with Swamiji (probable), occupies the throne.
