A seated man in saffron and gold ceremonial dress sits in a cushioned wooden armchair, raising one hand in blessing while the other rests on his lap, with his legs crossed. He wears a saffron turban, a gold-trimmed saffron shawl and a long gold-beaded necklace. Brass oil lamps stand on either side, flanked by potted red celosia, pink-leaved plants and red roses against a gold draped backdrop. A printed banner behind him shows a black-and-white portrait labelled Paramahamsa Sri Nithyananda beside a painted chariot scene for a Bhagavad Gita talk. Probable Swamiji is seated as the speaker, with his long hair and saffron and gold clothing as visible cues.
