A seated man in a rust-red saffron-toned shawl sits on an ornate silver throne with a red velvet cushion, bare-chested, with long swept-back dark hair and a short beard, hands pressed together in a gesture of address. Beside him stand a silver staff and a cane, and a Yamaha DTX electronic drum pad sits on a wooden stand next to an electric fan. Behind him a woman in a white and gold sari stands, and seated devotees in white and saffron clothing fill the hall, including a man with a sandalwood or vibhuti forehead mark and rudraksha beads. Swamiji (probable) is shown seated on the throne with long hair, saffron shawl and bare chest, presiding over the gathering.
