A man with long dark hair, a full beard and a bindi sits on an ornate gold-and-brown leather throne with lion-head armrests, smiling broadly. He wears an orange-saffron cloth draped over the upper body and a leopard-print lower wrap, with a thick rudraksha-style mala hanging to his waist and a gold bracelet on his wrist. A gold staff stands beside the throne, and a white-cased fan is visible at right. Behind him a large seated audience in white, pink and colourful saris and shirts fills the hall. Swamiji (probable): the long swept-back hair, saffron clothing, rudraksha mala and throne are the qualifying cues on this seated figure.
