A man seated on a tiger-striped throne-like chair addresses a large seated audience in a bright hall. He wears a rust-red turban with a jewelled ornament, long dark hair falling behind him, and a rust-red shawl over a leopard-print waist wrap, with heavy gold necklaces and rudraksha malas and matching red-beaded armbands. He gestures with one hand while speaking, and a brass cymbal is visible at the left edge. Pink-labelled water bottles sit near the chair, and blurred devotees fill the foreground and background. Appearance-based label: Swamiji (probable), given his distinctive turban, long swept hair, gold ornaments and rudraksha malas while seated and speaking.
