A seated man with closed eyes leads a discourse on a gilded throne with ornate golden lion-head armrests and a golden sunburst backdrop. He wears a rust-orange turban with a feather and jewelled ornament, a matching orange wrap and dhoti, a long gold necklace with a pendant, and a red thread on his wrist. A microphone stand is in front of him, and a white chowri-like staff rests at the left. Two leopard-print cushions flank him. Appearance-based identification is probable: the orange turban, ornate gold jewellery and throne cues match the Swamiji candidate, so the description labels him Swamiji (probable) as a seated discourse speaker.
