A smiling man with long dark hair, a red bindi and white sandalwood markings on his upper arms sits on an ornate golden throne decorated with dense garlands of white, red, pink and orange flowers and green leaves. He wears an orange saffron wrap, a long necklace of rudraksha beads and ceremonial gold beads, and holds up several yellow children's booklets with a cartoon sea creature illustration. A silver-and-gold cloth lies across his lap. Swamiji (probable): the long hair, orange saffron clothing, rudraksha mala and ceremonial gold necklace match the role of a seated spiritual leader giving a satsang discourse; the throne and garlands mark him as the honoured guest of the event. A gold-and-white backdrop frames the scene.
