A smiling man in a rust-red turban decorated with a jewelled brooch, a crescent ornament and a pale green feather sits in front of a large gold peacock-feather backdrop with a red velvet seat. He wears heavy gold beaded necklaces, gold armlets, hoop earrings and a rust-red wrap over his bare shoulder, with a vertical tilak on his forehead, and speaks into a microphone on a stand at right. The Swamiji (probable) cues are the swept-back long hair, turban, ornate gold necklaces and saffron-toned clothing, and he appears to be addressing a satsang as the presenter of the session. The Tamil text shown is the printed session heading and transcript excerpt on the page.
