He wears a loose saffron-orange robe draped over one shoulder and raises his right hand in a gesture of greeting. A microphone on a stand is at right, a bouquet of yellow roses, red flowers and purple blooms sits at left, and a red and purple backdrop with large white-outlined letters stands behind him. Appearance-based label: Swamiji (probable), given the long swept-back hair, saffron robe and seated stage setting; a page caption links the photo to the Nithyananda Spurana Convention, Day 3.
