A standing man in an orange-and-maroon robe with a gold-and-brown bead necklace holds a silver trident beside a leather armchair on a stage. He has long dark hair tied back, a red bindi and a small microphone at his mouth, and smiles with eyes closed. Behind him is a golden tree and a gold-and-red throne. Around him, seated devotees in orange and white clothing with orange shawls and red garlands look on, some with hands raised in prayer. A Yamaha mixing console and papers sit on the table in front. Swamiji (probable): the standing figure has long swept-back hair, saffron robes and ornate gold beads, cues consistent with the page's identification.

A man in a rust-red and saffron-bordered dhoti-style garment and a gold beaded necklace stands beside a carved wooden chair, holding a silver trident (trishul) upright in his right hand.
