A photograph of a seated figure in a red-orange shawl with bare shoulders and a long dark hair draped behind, arms raised outward in a gesture of address, seated on an ornate silver throne with a red cushion. A silver cane rests beside him, a white cup and a Yamaha speaker sit on a low table, and a small silver lion figure stands nearby. Behind him, seated attendees in white with orange-red shawls listen, and one person raises an arm at left. Ornate silver-trimmed throne and white-draped audience in a pale hall suggest a discourse. A red tikka marks the forehead and a rudraksha-style neck ornament is visible.
