A seated man in long dark hair and saffron-orange robes sits cross-legged on a gold-carved stage, reading from an open red book held on a wooden X-frame stand. He wears a ceremonial gold bead necklace and a red bindi on his forehead, and a microphone on a flexible arm sits before him. Behind him hangs a pale aqua backdrop decorated with strings of orange and red beads, and red-and-black tiger-striped cushions flank the stage. Swamiji (probable) appearance cues: long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and ornate gold necklace, seated as a speaker.
