A podium placard reads "Maheshwaranand Puriji" and "Vedant Ashram, Mumbai". Beside him, a man in saffron-orange robes with an orange forehead mark sits in a matching chair. The speaker's rudraksha mala and white robes are the speaker's own, and the placard identifies the podium speaker.

A seated man in pale pink-white robes with a rudraksha mala and a shaved head sits behind a clear acrylic lectern with a microphone, speaking at a stage event. A yellow placard on the lectern reads Maheshwaranand Puriji. Behind him, a man in saffron-orange robes with an orange tilak sits in a gold-embroidered armchair, and the stage is backed by a deep red drape with ornate carved arch motifs. The lectern placard names a speaker, but the seated speaker's appearance does not clearly match a person candidate, so the identity is uncertain.2008-02-11 +1 copiesFebruary 11 20082008-02-11February 11 20082008-02-11 +1 copiesFebruary 11 20082008-02-11 +1 copiesA bald, saffron-robed sannyasi with a vertical orange tilak on his forehead speaks into a handheld microphone while seated on an ornate upholstered throne-style chair.
