A smiling man with a red-orange turban and a vermilion dot on his forehead sits on a red-cushioned silver-trimmed throne, wearing an orange-red robe with gold border, a heavy gold ornate pendant necklace, a white flower garland, gold bangles and a red-and-gold armband. A microphone stands before him, a small white cup sits at left, and a golden carved relief backdrop fills the background. Swamiji (probable): the figure bears the long-established ceremonial cues of a saffron-robed guru on a throne, with a turban, gold necklaces and rudraksha-style adornment, though the face is not clearly identifiable from this image alone.
