A man seated cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with red velvet cushions and gold lion-head armrests, hands pressed together in anjali mudra with eyes closed. He wears a cream turban with a red bindi, a white dhoti-style garment, and a beaded rudraksha-style necklace with bracelets. Flanking the throne are a gilded lion-shaped throne base, a white fly-whisk handle on the left and a white staff on the right. Behind him is a painted four-armed deity murti and a dark doorway with hanging lamps. The figure's appearance with ornate ceremonial clothing, rudraksha-style beads and a turban on a gold throne is consistent with Swamiji (probable) seated for satsang.
