A seated man in a saffron-orange turban and bare chest, wearing a gold ceremonial necklace, multiple beaded malas and gold armlets, sits on a tiger-skin-draped seat beside a golden trident. His raised right fist and gesture address a large seated audience. Behind him a golden bull statue, red and white draped curtains, hanging orange and multicolored tassels, and a white ceiling fan frame the hall. Several people in front wear red, pink and yellow saris and kurtas, and many are seated across the floor. Probable Swamiji is the central seated figure, whose cues are long swept-back hair under the turban, saffron clothing, rudraksha malas and ceremonial gold necklace.
