A photograph of a seated figure on an ornate gold throne with carved lion supports, backed by a gilded arch and a gold canopy hung with white and yellow flower garlands. The seated figure wears saffron-orange robes with a gold-edged cloth, a white and magenta flower garland, a rudraksha-style mala, and has long dark hair; eyes closed, hands clasped, speaking into a microphone on a stand. Red and purple cushions, a pink tent ceiling and red-and-white decorative drapery frame the scene. A man in orange clothing with a red-marked forehead stands at the left edge holding a gold trident-topped staff, and a gold staff stands on the right. The appearance of the seated figure is consistent with the Swamiji (probable) label given the saffron robes, long hair, mala and ceremonial throne.
