A seated man in an ornate golden throne, with carved lion-head armrests and leopard-print cushions, smiles as he sits with hands resting on his knees. He wears a saffron-orange garment with a gold-edged border, a pale pink and white flower garland around his neck, a gold chain, a rudraksha-style bead mala, and a red thread on his wrist. A white sacred ash stripe with a red kumkum dot marks his forehead. A white staff with a serpent-shaped top rests beside the throne, and a microphone stands at the right edge. Swamiji (probable): long dark hair, saffron robes, gold chain and bead mala, seated on a throne in the role of a teacher giving a discourse.
