A man with long dark hair and a full beard sits cross-legged on a carved wooden throne-like seat draped with a leopard-print cushion, speaking into a microphone stand with both palms raised in a gesture of blessing. He wears a rust-orange robe, a gold pendant and ceremonial gold necklaces, a white and pink flower garland, and a tilak on his forehead. Behind him stands a gilded deity murti of a seated figure with a child-like companion, framed by potted green plants with saplings, brass lamps and bells, and red-and-yellow textile hangings with elephant motifs. A golden trident leans at the left edge. The setting suggests a satsang or discourse in an ashram hall.
