A seated man in saffron-orange robes sits on an ornate golden throne with carved lion-head armrests, resting his hand against his face in a contemplative pose. He wears a long rudraksha mala, a green beaded necklace, a gold chain, a red bindi and a dark swept-up hairstyle. Behind him, a large audience of mostly women in saris, saffron shawls and casual clothing sits in rows, several looking toward the stage. A bald man in the lower left foreground watches. Wooden lectern and white papers appear at the right edge. The setting is a hall with gold-toned walls.
