A man seated cross-legged on an ornate silver throne with repoussé floral and scrollwork carving, smiling and speaking into a microphone on a boom stand. He wears a rust-orange turban with a vertical tilak mark on his forehead, a rust-orange shawl over bare shoulders, multiple strands of brown rudraksha beads around his neck and rudraksha bracelets on his wrists. His hands rest on leopard-print cushions. Swamiji (probable): long dark hair under the turban, orange clothing and rudraksha malas are visible, and he is seated as a central speaker at the event. Watermarked archive photo text in the lower right is omitted.
