A seated man with long dark hair sits with palms pressed together in namaskar, eyes closed, in front of a gold-and-red cushioned seat. He wears white dhoti and shawl with gold border, a red and white flower garland, a gold ornamental pendant necklace, and a white and red tilak on his forehead. Behind him are white chrysanthemums and pink flowers in vases, red satin cloth and palm fronds. A microphone is visible at lower right. Swamiji (probable): the long hair, ornate gold necklace and garland match the Nithyananda Paramashivam presentation on this archive page, though the face is not used for identification.
