A seated man in a red-orange turban and rust-orange robe wears a long gold-and-orange-bead garland and a rudraksha-style necklace on a large ornate gold throne with red velvet cushions and a leopard-print cloth. He gestures with one hand toward a microphone on a stand while speaking. In front of him a man in a grey-striped shirt bends low and touches the throne's footrest, while an older man in white with glasses looks on from the right. Behind them stand other attendees, a red-draped table and framed photographs on the wall. Swamiji (probable) is the seated figure, given the saffron-toned clothing, turban and ornate adornments.
