A photograph of a stage set for a discourse. A man in a rust-red and gold-bordered dhoti and shawl, with a long rudraksha-style mala around his neck, stands at a clear acrylic lectern at left, one hand resting on it. Behind him is an ornate golden throne with a red cushioned seat, flanked by two golden lion figures and draped with a tiger-striped cloth. White drapes, potted green plants on white urn pillars, a red velvet valance and a painted backdrop of a deity mural frame the stage. A small framed picture sits on the floor at right. a person is claimed on the page, but the figure's appearance gives only partial cues, so identity is uncertain.
