A seated man in a brown and orange head wrap and a tilak on his forehead sits cross-legged on an ornate gold throne before a microphone. He is bare-chested, wearing multiple tiers of rudraksha malas and a leopard-print loincloth with a brown cloth draped over his legs. Two gold metal deity murti stand on either side: a four-armed figure holding a staff on the left and a figure playing a stringed veena on the right. Gold ceremonial parasols or kirtimukha-style ornaments frame the throne against a dark red mountain backdrop. The man appears to be the Swamiji (probable), identified by the long hair under the crown-like head wrap, the rudraksha malas and the throne setting.
