Photograph of a man seated on an ornate throne covered in flowers in yellow, red, white and purple, with gold lion-head armrests and a leopard-print cloth on the seat. He wears a rust-brown turban with a white and orange feather plume and gold ornaments, a rust-brown robe, a long gold necklace and a lotus-pink flower garland, with gold bangles on his wrist. He smiles and gestures with one hand toward a microphone on a stand, apparently speaking. Garlands of red and white flowers hang overhead. The swami-like appearance is consistent with a person, seated in a discourse setting.
