A man seated on an ornate gold throne with a carved golden backrest and a gold crown with red and blue stones, speaking into a handheld microphone with his palms pressed together. He wears a rust-red robe, a heavy gold necklace and pendant, gold armlets and bangles, and a long white and pink garland of flowers draped from his shoulders to his lap. A red cushion and a tiger-striped cloth cover the seat, and a red-and-gold fabric lies at the base. Gold lion-form carvings flank the throne. Swamiji (probable): long hair, ornate gold crown and jewellery, saffron-red ceremonial clothing and a flower garland mark a presentation consistent with the page's named figure, seated on a throne during a discourse. Setting appears to be a temple-style stage.
