A photograph of a seated man speaking into a microphone on a stand, on a red-carpeted stage. He sits on an ornate gold throne with a carved, rounded back and red cushions, beneath a red and gold canopy with fringed tassels. He wears a red-orange robe draped over one shoulder, a long string of beads and a gold pendant, and a red tilak on his forehead. He raises one hand with a finger extended while speaking. Behind him are carved wooden panels with geometric and floral motifs. The figure appears to be a presenter giving a discourse, with a visible candidate for the spiritual leader but appearance is uncertain given the photo's resolution and angle.

A seated person in a saffron-red robe with a brown shawl sits cross-legged on an ornate golden throne with a red cushioned seat, beneath a red and gold canopy umbrella. A garland of beads and a gold necklace hang on the chest, and red bangles are on the wrists; a bindi is on the forehead. The person speaks into a microphone on a stand, smiling and gesturing with one hand. Behind, carved wooden panels are lit by rows of small yellow lamps, and a golden staff with a finial stands to the left on a red carpet. Appearance-based label: the figure seated on the throne wears saffron/orange clothing, a rudraksha-style mala and gold necklace, but the face and hair are not sufficiently distinctive to confirm identity, so this is an unconfirmed candidate.2016-04-17A seated figure in orange-saffron robes sits cross-legged on an ornate golden throne with a red cushioned seat, beneath a red and gold canopy with fringed trim. He wears a long gold-and-beaded necklace, an orange shawl draped over the shoulder, and a red tilak on the forehead, with long dark hair swept back. A microphone stands at his side. Behind him, a carved wooden wall with rows of elephant reliefs and lit oil lamps in square niches frames a red-carpeted stage. A tall brass staff stands to the left. Appearance suggests a person, based on the long hair, saffron clothing, rudraksha-style beaded necklace and ceremonial throne, seated as a speaker on the stage.2016-04-17April 17 20162016-04-17April 17 20162016-04-17A man seated on an ornate gilded throne with red cushions on a red-carpeted stage, beneath a red and gold canopy umbrella.
