A man seated on an ornate golden throne with lion-head armrests and a dark red velvet cushion, speaking at a satsang. He wears a maroon robe with orange-yellow borders, an orange and maroon turban, a red bindi, a long gold-beaded necklace, and gold armlets. He holds his hands clasped and smiles while looking to his left, with a small headset microphone at his temple. Behind him are pink and blue decorative pillars, and beside the throne stands a gold oil lamp with a bird finial.
