A seated man in saffron-orange robes and a matching turban sits on an ornate silver-and-red throne, holding a small framed deity murti in his hands. He wears a long rudraksha mala and a gold necklace. Before him stands a silver trident (trishul) on a pole. Behind and around him, a large audience sits on the floor in saris and kurtas, many in orange, yellow and pink. Two video cameras on tripods and a white draped backdrop fill the hall. The man's appearance with long hair, saffron clothing, a turban, rudraksha and gold adornments is a probable match for Swamiji, seated in the role of teacher on the throne.
