A man seated on an ornate white and red throne speaks into a microphone on a stand before a red draped backdrop. He wears a red and gold turban with a red feather plume and gold ornament, an orange-saffron kurta, a gold pendant necklace, and long rudraksha malas. Long dark dreadlocks fall past his shoulders and he holds his hands together at his chest while smiling. Appearance-based cues are distinctive (long locks, turban, saffron clothing, rudraksha malas, ceremonial gold necklace), so this is a probable Swamiji (probable) seated as the discourse speaker.

He has a beard and is shown from the chest up. Beside him is an ornate white and gold carved throne with a red cushion and a decorated staff. The turban, garland-style necklace, orange clothing and throne match the iconographic cues of a probable Swamiji (probable) seated at a discourse, though the identity is inferred only from appearance and the photo is not a verified portrait of that person.2017-07-24July 24 20172017-07-24A smiling man in a rust-orange turban with a red plume and an ornate gold brooch sits on an ornately carved white and red throne before a red curtain. He wears an orange silk kurta, long rudraksha malas, a gold necklace and gold hoop earrings, and clasps his hands together at his chest beside a microphone on a stand. Swamiji (probable): the appearance cues of long hair, orange ornate clothing, rudraksha malas and a ceremonial turban fit a figure presented as the discourse speaker seated on the throne.2017-07-24July 24 20172017-07-24July 24 20172017-07-24July 24 20172017-07-24A smiling man in an orange-brown silk kurta and rudraksha malas stands beside a microphone stand in front of a red draped curtain.

Beside him is an ornate white carved chair with a red seat, and a long rod with tassels. The image appears to show a presentation or discourse setting.
