A man seated on an ornate gilded red velvet throne, wearing a rust-orange shawl draped over bare shoulders and a long multi-strand rudraksha mala with dark brown beads. He has long dark dreadlocked hair, a white horizontal tilak with a vertical central mark on his forehead, and a beard. He smiles and gestures with his right hand while people sit in the blurred background, including a woman in yellow and a seated man at lower right. The setting is a white-and-gold hall with yellow draping. Swamiji (probable): the long hair, orange clothing and rudraksha mala are consistent with the page's description of the event.
