A man with long swept-back hair, a rudraksha mala and a forehead tilak sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with a red cushion, eyes closed, hands resting on the armrests. He wears a rust-orange dhoti and shawl. Behind him a large carved relief shows a seated deity holding a staff, and a figure with clasped hands. A microphone stand stands in front of the throne, with potted green plants, dark clay pots and a small brass vessel on a side table at left. a person: the long hair, mala and saffron-toned robes are present, but this is a discourse setting rather than a clearly identified person.
