A seated man in a red turban and red draped robes sits on an ornate gold-and-red throne with carved gold scrollwork and a lion-form armrest. He wears a multi-strand gold and dark bead mala, a white beaded necklace with a gold pendant, a beaded armband, and a red tilak on his forehead. His right hand is raised in a gesture while he speaks, and his left hand rests on his lap. Swamiji (probable): long hair visible beneath the turban, red saffron-style robes, rudraksha-style beads and ceremonial gold necklace, seated on a throne while teaching.
