A smiling man seated on an ornate golden throne with lion-head armrests and a leopard-print cushion, wearing a leopard-print headwrap, a red-brown saffron-toned robe and a bare right arm with bangles. He is draped with a long garland of white, yellow, pink and red flowers and wears heavy gold necklaces, a pendant and a rudraksha-style bead bracelet, with a red tilak on his forehead. A microphone stand is in front of him. Probable Swamiji: the appearance cues include the long swept-back hair under the headwrap, ornate gold jewellery, saffron-toned robe and garland, seated on a throne in a satsang setting.
