A photograph of a seated figure on an ornate silver throne with a red cushioned seat, on a red stage carpet. The figure wears a rust-red robe draped over one shoulder, a rudraksha-style necklace with a gold pendant, and has long dark hair, a candidate matching the page's Swamiji cues (long hair, ceremonial gold necklace, saffron-toned robe), so this is Swamiji (probable). Around him a large audience sits on the floor, many in orange, red and cream clothing, some clapping. A silver peacock sculpture rests at the base of the throne, a silver lectern with a book stands to the left, and a silver staff with a red finial stands at right. A camera on a tripod is visible at the right edge.
