A man in a maroon turban with a jeweled ornament and red-brown robes sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne with red cushions, speaking into a microphone on a stand. He wears a long gold necklace and a rudraksha mala, with gold armlets on his upper arms. Behind him a large gold relief carving shows a multi-armed deity murti with a crown and a cobra hood. A gold trident stands at the left edge and a small wooden table with a candle sits at the lower left. Swamiji (probable): the seated speaker has a turban, rudraksha mala, gold necklace and saffron-toned robes, and he is presented on the throne as the speaker.
