The seated man wears an orange-saffron robe, a red floral garland and multiple strands of beads, with a white tilak on his forehead, and raises one hand in a gesture while speaking. In the foreground a tiered brass oil lamp burns with several flames, and several devotees in red and orange clothing with folded hands are partly visible at the lower edges. Blue and yellow painted pillars frame the scene. Probable Swamiji cues: long swept-back hair, saffron robe, rudraksha beads and a ceremonial throne, seated as the speaker.
