A smiling man with long dark hair, a white and red forehead mark and a full beard sits on an ornate silver-framed white throne with red cushions, before a golden lattice backdrop with two deity statues above him. He wears a rust-brown robe, a pink and white flower garland, a heavy brown beaded mala and a large gold pendant, with rudraksha bracelets on his arms. A microphone stands at his side and a small wooden book stand holds an open book. Potted green plants and a striped cloth frame the stage, and a silver footstool sits in front. Swamiji (probable): the long hair, saffron-brown ceremonial clothing, rudraksha malas and ceremonial gold necklace match the cues for the figure on the throne, who is presenting a discourse.
