Photograph of a smiling man seated on an ornate silver throne with a leopard-print cushion, in front of a red curtain and a microphone on a stand. He wears a rust-orange turban decorated with a gold crescent and gold jewelled ornaments, an orange-saffron wrap, layered rudraksha malas, a gold necklace and orange beaded armbands. Swamiji (probable): long hair under the turban, saffron clothing, rudraksha malas and ceremonial gold adornments, with the throne indicating his role as a seated discourse speaker.
