A figure in a rust-orange turban and saffron-orange shawl sits on an ornate brown leather throne-style chair on a stage, speaking into a microphone with eyes closed while gesturing with one hand toward the chest. Multiple long beaded rudraksha-style malas hang at the neck. Behind is a golden ceremonial canopy with hanging gold leaf ornaments, deep red velvet drapes, and gilded lion-form armrests on red-cushioned seats. A white podium holds a Yamaha mixer, and a small wooden side table holds a water bottle, a glass and a white teacup. Only the single seated speaker is physically present. a person, seated in a discourse setting.
