A photograph of a smiling man seated on an ornate gold throne with intricate carved relief and lion-head armrests draped in leopard-print cushions. He wears a rust-red turban with gold ornaments, a rust-red shawl over a rust-red robe, a braided rope of hair falling over one shoulder, a multi-strand gold bead necklace and a large gold pendant with a lotus motif, plus gold armbands and bangles. He holds a white serpent-shaped staff in his left hand and sits before a microphone on a stand. Swamiji (probable) cues: distinctive rust-red turban, braided hair, rudraksha-style gold ornaments and ceremonial gold pendant seated on a throne, consistent with an in-person discourse setting.
