A seated man in saffron-orange robes sits cross-legged on a white-draped throne-like seat with a white dome-shaped canopy behind him, speaking into a microphone on a stand. His long dark hair is swept back. A white electric fan stands to the left beside a small table with water bottles and red flowers. Dark curtains form the backdrop, and blurred heads of audience members are visible in the foreground. The figure matches the Swamiji (probable) appearance cues of saffron clothing and swept-back hair, seated in the teaching role.
