A seated man in a large ornate gold throne with red cushions sits at a microphone stand, palms pressed together in a namaste greeting and smiling. He wears a rust-orange dhoti and shawl, a gold pendant, multiple beaded necklaces and bangles, and has long dark hair and a red tilak. Behind him stands a decorated deity murti with a pink crown and a trident-like staff rises at left. To the right, an older white-haired man in a white shirt and white dhoti sits beside the throne, and a figure in orange robes sits at far left. Gold-leaf stage décor, green foliage and a brass kalasha frame the scene. Judging by the throne and ceremonial attire, this is a formal satsang or discourse setting. Swamiji (probable): the seated central figure has long swept-back hair, ornate gold necklaces and rust-orange ceremonial clothing seated on a throne.
