A large audience fills a hall while a bearded man with long dark hair, wearing an orange-saffron robe, sits smiling on an ornate silver-and-red throne holding a ceremonial staff. A tall silver trident stands at left. Many seated devotees in orange, white and colourful saris and kurtas fill the foreground and rows behind, and a screen at the top shows a magnified image of the same figure. The man's appearance (long swept hair, saffron robe, throne) fits the a person cues on the page, so he is identified as the seated speaker on the throne in a discourse setting.
