A seated man in ceremonial attire sits on an ornate carved wooden throne with a leopard-print cushion and gold-patterned base, before a deep red curtain. He wears a leopard-print cloth belt, a rust-red and gold-bordered dhoti, a crescent-moon headpiece with a leopard-print turban, a rudraksha mala with a silver pendant and a gold necklace, and wrist bands. He raises one hand in greeting and holds a silver staff with a serpent-shaped top in the other. Swamiji (probable): long swept-back hair, rudraksha malas and ceremonial gold necklace match the presentation of the reference figure, so the figure is labeled as a probable depiction of the teacher seated on the throne.
