A seated man in a red and gold turban with a fan-pleated crown and a red-and-gold striped border sits on an ornate gilded throne with a red tiger-striped cushion. He has eyes closed, palms pressed together in namaste at his chest, a red bindi and white markings on his forehead and upper arms. He wears a red shawl, a thick gold-beaded rudraksha-style mala around his neck and waist, gold bangles on his wrists and arms, and a small clip microphone near his face. The setting is a formal satsang. Appearance-based identification is uncertain, so the role is given as a seated devotee-speaker figure.
