A seated man in saffron-orange robes sits cross-legged on a tiger-skin-covered dais with eyes closed, wearing a red-orange turban with a jewelled ornament, a heavy gold ceremonial necklace and gold armbands. Beside him stands a tall golden trident, and to his left a golden bull (Nandi) sculpture with a bowl. Swamiji (probable): the seated man has long dark hair under a turban, ornate gold necklace and orange clothing, presented as the central teacher figure. Behind him a large audience sits on the floor in white, orange and red clothes, and a camera on a tripod stands on a raised platform at left. Blue-white draped backdrop fills the hall.
