A man with long swept-back dark hair and a red bindi sits on an ornate gold-trimmed brown leather throne with golden lion-head armrests. He wears a saffron-orange robe, a thick rudraksha mala, a green bead necklace and a gold pendant, and rests his cheek on one hand. Behind him, seated devotees in orange, pink and turquoise saris and robes fill the hall. A bald man in glasses sits in the lower left foreground. Swamiji (probable) appears as the person seated on the throne, identified by the long swept-back hair, saffron clothing and rudraksha mala. The image is a photograph from a satsang-style gathering.
